If it's Saturday, it must be Dansavanh

My return to the links was less than stellar, but it was fun.

I got up at 6:00 am (god, who am I?) to head out to Dansavanh for some golf. It's been like 5 months, so it was great to get out.

Of course, Katherine is spending her Saturday teaching English to blind kids, so it makes me feel just a tad selfish. On the other hand, golf is fun.

I went with our friend Jon and a couple other American guys who live here (and are true expatriates who have lived overseas for years and years). Good day of golf, but hot, and I really, truly sucked.

But now I'm comfortably ensconced in our air-conditioned home, and don't know if I'll leave for the rest of the day.

We've been hearing from some of our friends from A-100 on their postings as well.

Sadly, our good friend Michael (Jakarta) will be far away in Bogota, Colombia. Happily, our good friend Marybeth (Surabaya) will be closer, in Morocco, so we've got a built in vacation spot. We've also heard from friends who will be in Moscow and Warsaw. And Kiev has direct flights to Paris (Marty and Cyndy, and our recently departed friend Erin) and London (everybody there), so it should be a fun place to be visit-wise too.

We don't yet know who got Windhoek. Whoever it is is on our newly-created enemies list.
