We are here and all settled in to living in Lusaka Zambia. We have been here a week and it has taken me that long to update the blog! That is why there are 2 big posts of pictures today! We have really enjoyed our time here in Zambia thus far! The weather is wonderful this time of year and the trees are all blooming and the grass is so green, but we can tell things are getting dry by all of the ants coming inside looking for water! So far, we have visited gov't agencies, learned to drive on the left side of the road, visited a town the size of Nyimba called Chongwe, shopped in the market and grocery stores, and tomorrow we are headed to "Last Saturday" which is an African craft market. There will probably be a post tomorrow too! Thank you all for your love and prayers and enjoy the pictures below and check the post under it as well!

The road we took to church on Sunday...look at the holes on the right side of the road.
Lily and I greeting everyone at Chisomo Baptist Church on Sunday. At the end of each service we all shake hands. Lily did so well, she shook hands with everyone!!
A view to the east from Chongwe. Chongwe is east of Lusaka, we go through Chongwe to get to Nyimba. This area is gorgeous!!! Full of hills and palm trees!!!
