Pottery classes in Mwadui

At last I've managed to schedule three mornings a week to attend pottery classes here in Mwadui. My friend, Amanda, who ran her own pottery school back in SA, has set up here in the remotest of African towns!

She and Tilla, the only other expat lady here, have been practicing this art here since the beginning of the year. Even though I was invited to join them in February, I have been very involved in running our company Guest House (for the love it it, LOL!) and have intended to go for months. Two weeks ago I took the plunge and finally I am there and enjoying myself immensely. We work (and talk, of course) for two hours each on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday mornings.
 A learning curve for me!

May you all have a wonderful week ahead.
