Stay Upright

My next hurdle is learning to ride a motor bike with a school reassuringly named "Stay Upright". I will have 4 days after Easter in Fitzroy acquiring some skills for working in a developing country and then 2 days in Hoppers Crossing hopefully staying upright and earning a Victorian Motorcycle Learner's Permit.
Any hints for staying upright gratefully accepted.
Love Jenny

Bukoba

Suddenly it's all happening!
Yesterday we had photos taken to begin the Visa and Work Permit application process. VSO-AVI are booking the plane tickets and we expect to be off on July 3rd.
I will be working training teacher mentors in inclusive teaching methods to improve the teaching of maths, Steve will be the 'house husband' shopping at the market to cook our meals and organising the washing and ironing. Who wants to run a sweep on how long that will last!

I have three more weeks at Baimbridge, then I'm planning on getting this adventure organised.

Comments please so I know who I'm talking to, love Jenny.

PS The photo is from a website all about Bukoba. You can see more of it here.
