Little tid-bits of info

Now that I have shown you our house and backyard as well as documented our flight out here it is time to get to talking about our day and little tid-bits of information that I can share with you.
My kids were on a lizard hunt this morning, we have seen so many different colors of lizards and last night we saw one with an orange head and tail and black body. It was so incredible, trying our best to find another one to take a picture. One of my closest friends back home LOVES lizards so Micah thinks that we can just catch one and send it to her in a box. Unfortunately we will have to show you pictures. The quest continues for the elusive black and orange lizard. On the lizard front, Micah "found" a gecko in her bedroom last night and we have been searching the house for this little gecko................. I found it this evening but not for long! They are pretty fast, search continues tomorrow I guess.
What can I tell you about today,Jet leg has been hitting really hard, last night we went to be at 5:00 am and woke up ( by alarm ) at 10:40 am. The kids only fell asleep at 3:30 ish am so we have all been pretty bagged here plus the humidity was high today with also saps all energy.

I cooked my very first meal since arriving in Kinshasa, a form of a stew. Can't say it was all that great........... okay it was not good at all, really salty! I didn't even put in that much salt!
This is Evan's Mom and Dads kitchen, our stove doesn't work yet so we eat together.
Pic of our backyard facing the house, so from the wall towards the house.

The last two pics for today will be of my feet.................. okay digest what I just said and hear me out. I can't believe how dirty things get out here, dust is everywhere. We have our home swept and mopped everyday. Before you look at the pictures take into consideration that I was wearing flip-flop all day so I never just walked in the dirt.

Tops of my feet!
Bottom.......... nasty!
