We're moving to the mountains!

Hey all. Another quick post (sorry, I promise to eventually provide more details re our lives). We found out last week that we'll be moving to the Drakensberg Mountains in Kwa-Zulu Natal. Our nearest big town is Escourt, and I think we'll be 3-4 hours from Durban (beach). We're ridiculously excited, although I'm a bit concerned about how cold it's going to be (esp since there is not heat). It should be interesting.

We leave tomorrow morning for our site visit. We'll meet our supervisors, visit our village, etc. We come back on Sunday for a little less than 2 weeks of additional training, and then we move to KZN for good. KZN has the highest HIV/AIDS rate of any SA province (~40%).

We will probably buy a modem in the next month or so and will be more in touch. I promise to also post pictures. One of these days...
