We Have Arrived

After a ferry ride, two 9 hour plane rides, a 6 hour car drive, and a few sleepless nights getting used to the 11 hour time change, we returned to the village.  Fighting our way through the spiderwebs and dust, we inspected our house.  Not too bad, other that the rat in the hallway that has been there way too long. The floor is littered with so many dead spiders and other bugs that you stop seeing them as bugs and just see dirt. Nothing a broom can't fix.
On closer inspection it looked as though there had been an earthquake as many of the walls and floors have cracks jagging through them,  I guess things have been very dry while we were away and it has cause the house to shift.  Nothing a bit of cement and paint won't fix though. 
The kids wander from room to room, happy to be back but with a big, empty, dirty house they soon get bored. Nothing 25 village kids ready to play won't fix.
