Siansowa Village. This is the village where Alfred grew up and where
his mother currently lives. This village is located along Kariba Lake.
We purchased a fiberglass boat last year for their fishing project.
This boat is a supplement to the dugout wooden canoe type boats they
are currently using. They use nets for fishing and the dugouts would
overturn much to easily. With crocodiles and hippo's in the lake, this
was very risky. This simple unpowered boat has transformed their
livelihood.
We visited the church that was built a few years ago and then ate
another delicious traditional meal at the village. After lunch we said
goodbye and traveled back the 40-50 mile 2.5 hour drive then an
additional 90 miles to Zimba. We stayed at the Zimba mission house and
were served a delicious dinner.
Went to bed to get some rest so we could leave for church in
Livingstone early in the morning.
