Climbing Mount Morija

Yesterday was the peak of my sickness and now I am feeling better and better. Today we went into town- Maseru is so cool. It's like sub-saharan Africa meets some English or Scandinavian village. The buildings in the city center are in the shape of the traditional Basotho hats worn by the people of lesotho (=basotho). The hats look like what workers in rice fields wear and the people here are a little more light-skinned and slightly more Asian or Hispanic features. I am about to leave for Mount Morija where there are footprints from the 'Lesothosaurus' dinosaur. We have to hike almost to the top of the mountain to see the footprints, and it it supposed to be a really beautiful view. Tonight I'm having dinner with Pascalina Mamunyani (her last name means, literally, mother of Munyani-her eldest son). Pascalina is the Primary Healthcare Coordinator for CHAL (Christian Health Association of Lesotho). She is going to make papa, which is like nsimah (or shimah in zambia) but thicker. And we'll hopefully have some pumpkin greens and a little chicken to go with it.
