A week off

This is where we've been living this week - "The Intrepid".  It's docked in Winchester Bay, OR, and we're enjoying a week off.  We tried to take a little time off right before leaving Tanzania, but that didn't work so well.  Somehow it's tricky to take time off when there is lots of work to be done that we know we could and should be doing.  But this week we're far away from the office in Musoma and from everyone we know, and  it's suddenly not so hard to fill a day with activities like taking a nap, going for a long walk on the beach, reading a novel, and eating a lot, and not feeling guilty that we haven't been more productive.  Our job this week has been to rest and recover, so napping is suddenly on the to-do list for productivity!  We're both now fully over jet lag and feeling a bit more ready to enjoy life in North America for the next six months.
