Christmas in August

After two and a half months of living in a five room apartment with a mattress and a plastic table our container arrived of Friday afternoon. Adrian and I have been diligently unpacking and setting up our home for the next three years. It truly has been like Christmas as much of the stuff we bought new, including a cappuccino machine and a huge television with surround sound. Normally, I would feel guilty about having so many gadgets but in Kinshasa, where there is no movie theatre and/or Starbucks such things will help cure homesickness for sure.
