Long Journey Ahead

[maggiebee]

My daughter leaves Aberdeen tomorrow on the first leg of her trip to Malawi. I will miss her while she is away, but console myself with the thought that she will be in good company and it's only for a fortnight. This is part of the Dochas Trust's Facebook entry:

Ten treadle sewing machines have arrived in Nsanje ready for Andrea Smith arriving next week to teach the ladies how to use them so that they can make school uniforms for orphans.

Am very proud of her.

As well as bringing the sewing machines she'll also be bringing a skill that will stay with the women who train on them all their days. Well done!

A truly generous mission. Wishing her all the best in her work.

Wonderful! Such an adventure for her while giving to those in need.
She'll be back before you know it.

"Take Mohammed to the mountain, not the mountain to Mohammed." That sums this up adequately - hope that she enjoys the experience! (Just as Uruguay score!)

That's a brilliant thing that she's doing, Maggie!

Wow! That's a really brilliant idea, wish her all the best, and remind her to enjoy every minute.
