Saturday the 22nd of March
Today I went in to town to do emails. Reverend Kenneth drove us to Bende from where we got the bus. The buses are mini van size with benches going all across the van. They pack people in full to bursting so unloading the bus looks like some kind of circus feat. It’s very squashed and I felt quite unconvertible and hot. There are not any bus stop signs so you can flag buses down on the route, I do not really understand how you could tell which bus would go where but everyone else seems to get it.
When we had finished emails we went shopping in the market for food and wrappers so I could get some dresses made up by a tailor. I chose some fine cloth so am expecting very beautiful dresses that I can wear back home in summer, I also have got a skirt and shirt coming, It’s going to take 2 weeks to finish my order but I am pretty excited.
Sunday the 23rd of March, Easter Sunday
Today was Easter. To celebrate our friends from Amaudo 2 all came down on two trucks so we could have a joint service. All our Residents were tailored brand new clothes so everyone was dressed up very smartly and brightly. Everyone was in a good mood and it was a very joyful service. When we ate lunch everyone was given fizzy drinks.

Rose, her brother and her cousin came to my house after lunch to do drawing. It was a very hot day so we had been expecting rain. We had quite a storm so our power was cut of early in the evening but it cooled the temperature down to comfortably cool.
I have not done a lot today, as it is a public holiday. I have mainly done typing and had another mini art class. Resident Adaze and Bro Philip’s daughter came today. I was especially pleased with Adaze because she concentrated so well and took a lot of care over her drawing of my toy chicken. Reverend Kenneth told me they are going out to pick Residents tomorrow and I am invited to come, I am pretty excited I hope we find some and that they are good tempered.
