Surprise!

At one of the festivals we were helping out with last week with Gola (read earlier post), this woman asked us to go with her to her home afterwards and pray with her husband. He was too weak to go to the festivals (he has had 4 heart operations). Obviously we said yes. While we were there I asked to use their washroom. Not only did they have a toilet instead of a squatty (hooray!), but when I went to wash my hands I got an extra surprise!

A huge fish! It is as long as the distance of my elbow to the tip of my middle finger! I did a little scream because I was surprised.

When I got back to the living room, I said "You're fish startled me!" and she said "Oh! That is from a friend! I haven't had time to cook it yet."

So in the mean time, they were keeping it in the big water basin in their bathroom. Where they brush their teeth and wash their hands and get their bathing water.
