First Day in Oloika

Hello everyone,
I just had a nice talk with Chris who called me from Oloika to say that the group had a good first work day on the site. They were digging the trenches for the foundation, hauling rocks and working with sand. They have, after months of planning, started the work of building the Oloika Dining Hall. They have also started World Leadership School's leadership curriculum, which involves understand each person's "temperament." They also saw quite a few animals on the way back to the Losijo Lodge this evening -- giraffe, gazelle and what they at first thought, in the evening light, was a giant flock of yellow birds (turned out to be bats). Anyway, wanted to give an update that everyone is healthy and happy to be in Oloika. Do not hesitate to call me if you have any questions,
Thanks
