Mpigii :)

So, I am officially in Canada......but I wanted to say a word for Mpigi, where I spent the last month and a half of my trip :) There are simply things I already (and knew I'd miss) about Mpigi. So here they are (officially):

Firstly, I miss the quietness. No traffic or television in Mpigi (for the most part).

Secondly, the simplicity in living. As far as I could see, there weren't any 'Walmart Supercenters' in Mpigi. Simplicity doesn't come easy in Canada. There are just too many choices here! Figuring out what to wear in the morning or what to eat for breakfast is much quicker and less stressful when you only have the choice of a grey or purple t-shirt to wear, and either oats or toast for breakfast. And oh my! Do I ever miss the simplicity....

Thirdly, I miss walking to where you need to get. It appears I'm back into the drudgery of driving where I need to be.....and also paying the gasoline to get there :(

And fourthly, I miss the kids. Maybe that's a given....but I just do. They sing and dance and play but are also so diligent with chores and homework. They're just absolutely incredible. And as such, I'll end with just that: A few pictures.....my ode to Mpigi ;)
