Endgame

We are rapidly approaching the end of our time here. I have been busy with course preparation and working on the science curriculum. The courses have gone well and the students seem to have learned a lot with some of them becoming pretty good programmers. We want to come back. We leave Iringa on June 27th for a week dive vacation at Kervan Saray Beach Resort in Pemba next to Ngezi Forest Preserve. On the 28th we will fly to Zanzibar and on to Pemba where we need to take a taxi to Chake Chake and catch a daladala for a 90 minute ride to Konde on the north end of the island where we next go to the petrol station to find someone that can drive us the last 10 km to the resort. (We are saving the $80 each way they charge to pick you up). The resort looks to be very nice and is on the remote north end of the island. We are really looking forward to the break and will come back to Dar on July 5th and fly out on the 7th arriving in Mpls in the afternoon on the 8th.
