Seppo and David Depart Cape Breton to join Satu and Erik

It is a cold wintery crazy day and we finally got away. A cancelled exam for Seppo, some customer service issues for David, a flat tire that Ralph Ivey fixed right away. We we're just below Wycogomaugh and saw the Brasdor lakes frozen solid and the snow blowing off the lakes and it made us think of a dessert with blowing sand and hardships. Total contrasts tempurature wise in Ethiopia but the problems you deal with are the same. We won't have much direct contact over the next three weeks but we are happy that things are gradually moving forward and we can get this opportunity to connect with people, culture so far away. Seppo and I were talking about how surreal it is to leave some little house in CB pack your bags, drive to Halifax, fly somewhere else, connect here and there and next thing you know you are very far from home and that is your world. The flip side before you know it everything is done and you are back home contemplating. Even questioning did that really happen or was it a dream.

Talk to you soon,
David and Seppo
