Hey everyone~
Well I am in Nampula City on an unexpected trip, I came in for nothing more than more stomach issues. I went to a local health clinic to have a test done. We´ll see. I met someone from the states, her and her husband are with a missionary and they offered me a place to sleep. So I spent the night in a real house, I felt like I was home again. She reminds me of mom, in being she has a lot of "stuff", for those of you who know what I mean. But it was nice being in a familiar atmosphere. Today I am going to the mission to meet everyoen and get to know a few more Americans, than I know, which here is none. So I will keep you all updated. I hope I wonÂșt be back in the city for a month or so, but who knows. My towm might be getting a cell phone tower, I am totally excited. Slowly but surely it will happen. So talk to you all soon and see you in three months.
Love and miss you all,
Shells

Hey everyone~
I just wanted to say hi one last time, probably for the next month or two. I think I am leaving tomorrow but I don't know if I have a plane ticket yet. Today I spent walking around Maputo getting things that I needed and what not. Sarah I mailed out your letter today, so we will see how long it takes to get to you. Oh someone tried to call me last night, I saw it on my phone this morning. Try calling me tonight I promise I will wake up. I will put the phone next to my ear or under my pillow or something. Peggy you will be glad to know that I have been getting good use out of the shirts you sent me. Karen As soon as it gets hot again I will be using the fan that you sent to me. And the food that came in the boxes is great, I love having options at mealtimes. Or just lots of snacks. Anyway I will have my phone on me like I said and I hope to hear from whoever. Ok, I have to go, Love and miss you all,Michelle
