Friday we left Zimba for the return trip to Lusaka. We stopped in Choma to drop Dave off as he will be staying 2 more weeks installing solar power at the schools. We attempted to meet with the district education board secretary, who was delayed in a meeting. We waited for about 20 minutes but were pressed for time, so we continued on to Lusaka. We ate on the road to be able to make our 4:00 pm meeting. Our meeting was with the Zambian Minister of Defense, the Honorable Richwell Siamunene, MP. He wanted to express his appreciation for all the work that was done at his home school of Sinanjola. We were all very honored to meet a Zambian Government official at this high level. He was a very humble Christian man who was very thankful for the help given to the school he had attended as a boy.
We left there (with pictures to prove we were there!) and ate dinner in town. After dinner we went back to Alfred's to talk about the trip and pack for the return trip to the US.
