We have a couple of rooms with an air conditioner in our home but walking around town during the day can be pretty hot. Dripping with sweat, I somehow managed to literally peel myself into a bathing suit so I could check out a new swimming pool at a nearby hotel - only to find the murky, green water "unusable." Quelle surprise!
Internet access has been disappointing too. Very slow and quite sporadic.
And yet, there are those other little things which manage to tip the scale in the other direction. When we gave our night watchman, Mumuni, a small gift of figs, dates & apricots from Egypt along with a photo of him which I had taken last October & had developed before leaving the US, he laughed & laughed, jumping about and clapping his hands in joy and appreciation of possessing a printed picture of himself. It may have made his day but I know it certainly made mine.
