Made it!

I've made it safely to Bujumbura, Burundi.  I enjoyed my first trip to Europe, and things are going well in Burundi.  I've already slept under my first mosquito net, slept through a thunderstorm, survived a cold shower, and found a large spider.  I've also had the opportunity to play Oh Hell, and I think I just had the best Mocha coffee I've ever had.  There is a lot more in Bujumbura than I thought.  I think it reminds me more of Mexico, than it does Thailand.  I had lunch today at the Burundi office, and met a lot of the staff that I've heard about and e-mailed.  Tomorrow morning, I'll be going to Gitega and seeing the school I'll be teaching at.  Traveling with the headmaster of the school and the history teacher has been a blessing.
