Zwazo yo



That means birds in Creole. I started a blog to keep track of my work there, because I plan on returning for a month! There's so much to do. I taught about the importance of birds to the ecosystem and ecotourism to 2 primary/secondary schools, to the teens that live near the missionaries (and they came back for 2 birding excursions), and to men who were visiting for leadership conferences (some walked 9 - 11 hours to attend the conferences). I even worked water quality into the mix and want to delve into that more on the next trip. Check the blog for more photos, and let me know if you come across appropriate information that I could link on it. I bought the coffee that you see being roasted, and the other picture is of my star pupil Louisders took me on two bird tours and met with me for 3 hours to learn English in the context of birding. He picked it up pretty quickly! http://zwazoyo.blogspot.com/

Anyone know how I get my blog to be wide like the knitting blog? Is it related to the template I choose? I gave up being Sally's Sister for the new blog. And to hit everyone else's blog at once - yea Sp. Sq and baby squirrel. 5 things you don't know about me - I probably shouldn't tell...

It is the template. You have to choose one of the stretch templates to make it wide.
