Wednesday, April 21 was a hectic day, beginning with a 45-minute search for our VOH keys. We finally left home without them, and soon got a call telling us they had been left on the landing outside the office building. Once at VOH, David repaired a fridge door in one of the VOH homes. Next was a lunch meeting, where Jr. shared with us that Rowena, the bookkeeper at VOH, was intimidated by us and had resigned, as she felt that she couldn’t work with us. Rowena’s last day will be May 13, which leaves us in a little bit of a jam, as year end is July 31.

Jr. and David spent the rest of the day running errands for VOH, and stopped for a cappuccino at Cappuccinos. When we were about to leave, the people at the next table began speaking with us, asking what we were doing in Malawi. It turns out they were in town for the President’s wedding – his new bride and Luba (Otto’s wife) are friends. The Norwegian couple were quite taken with what we are doing at VOH and wanted to see VOHM. They had no vehicle, so Jr. offered to pick them up in the morning. That was the upbeat finish to a mostly downbeat day!
