I said a sad farewell to one of my close friends here on the Africa Mercy on Sunday. Kelly is an ICU nurse from the States. We ended up hanging out quite a lot, so I’m really missing her. Life here on the Africa Mercy means that you are constantly saying hello and goodbye to special people. It’s good, but hard too. The long term crew say the goodbyes are one of the hardest parts of being here.
We had a going away party for Kelly on Friday evening. We played ultimate Frisbee, then ordered pizza and had a massive game of spoons. For those of you who don’t know, Spoons is a card game that can get really crazy. You end up wrestling to get your spoon, and sometimes get a little bruised in the process. It’s a lot of fun.
As you can tell by the pictures, some people get a little competitive and go to great lengths to get their spoon!
