Zabeth left for Japan last week to teach English for the next year. She left from El Paso, so my dad once again got to say goodbye to somebody he loves at the airport. Her first week in training was in a hotel in Tokyo and I was in town for training we got to talk every morning for her and every night for me. She left a few days ago to travel towards where she will be working, and I haven't heard from her since she made the move. Since I don't have access to the internet for a few weeks at a time when Im in Sami Koto I understand, and realize its a lot easier to be the one without internet rather than the one waiting to get word. Stamps for mail to the US are 25 dalasi, but I don't know if many letters go to Japan from The Gambia so it will be an experiment finding out how much it costs to send something there. When people are doing their greetings, they ask about the family, the home people, and then how my wife is doing. I did say she is in America, but soon she is going to work in Japan, and then in one year she will come to visit Gambia. There are a few people that I think really understand what I’m saying, so I am anxious to finally tell them no longer is she in America, but now she is in fact in Japan.
Update: I talked to Zabeth this morning, I think shes in her apartment and doing fine
