Communication

Communication here is tough. Text messages that were sent to us on Sunday, we only received on Tuesday. We are unable to send text messages and we don't seem to be able to access our emails on the phone. There is only one service provider and so we are at their mercy.

We have been able to access and clear the large emails in our inbox in Awasa so we can again receive emails. Please keep the contents small and attachments to a minimum.

We will try to check again in Addis but we have been warned that broadband and wireless here makes South Africa's offerings look stratospherically speedy!!
