from weaves to wigs

I would love to create an anthology of hair styles/pieces here in the northern region of Namibia. Back in 1997-1999, the rage was weaves with intricate designs...now it seems to be wigs...Perhaps because my hair style has not really changed since about 1985, I do not notice the trends, but here, things are a changin'

Kayla and I have been muddling through it here! She is quiet a trooper! She has been shocked by many things, is not quite yet adjusted to the food and not sure she will, but is doing a great job of just "being." Tonight we will make tacos for the family-I will take pics and post them.

I have reunited with all my favorite people. Last night was the final reunion with one of my favorite teacher, Tate Armas! We had a great time talking and I'm enjoying my time here with my Namibian family and friends.

Today I am also making connections with peopole for the research peice-actually the reason I am here! Things are going slow, as expected, but going well!
