It doesn't feel like we've been here that long, but I guess we have because it is Monday already. Saturday a bunch of us girls woke up early to walk to the mall (40 mins away) to look at two of the gyms. I decided to join the third, which is the closest. I went to the gym today, which felt great and I am happy with. It is in a plaza with a few cafes and clubs, and the NAMIBIAN CRAFT CENTER. Which will be the place I will spend all my time and money. It is all fair trade and locally made by Namibian women who then have a little section in the center to sell their stuff. There's beautiful artwork and bags and clothes and jewelery.
This weekend was really laid back, and so was today because I don't start my internship until Wednesday. I did get some reading to do for classes this week, and tomorrow we have a team building retreat. So things have been a little more laid back than Johannesburg, and I am enjoying getting to know Windhoek. I hope that the transition into our urban homestay is smooth, because we leave on Thursday and I am not quite ready for living somewhere else for 10 days.
I am working on getting photos up on Picasa, but I do have some on Facebook for those that didn't see!
