Up at 6:00, it was cold last night.  Again very high humidity with cooler temperature makes me feel sticky and cool.  Not ideal sleeping condition.  Breakfast was peanut butter on soggy rice.  But we did have a choice between sweet or savory.  The sweet was ok with a bunch of cinnamon on it.  Loaded up the vehicles and headed over to Fotobohitra (school #2). By 11:15 the first string of lights are on.  By the time we broke for lunch, the second string was up and on.  Lunch was rice and zebu.  Did have a carrot salad also.  Like usual, I didn’t eat that much rice.  On the way back to the school, we stopped at the blacksmith to order a half dozen coupcoups.  Well the truck I was in didn’t stop and the driver doesn’t speak English so it was hard to tell him to go back, but we managed.  Nobody had told him where we were going.  Back at the school, all lights were in by 4:00.  Way faster than we expected.  The rest of the finish work was done about 5:00 but by he time we were cleaned up and packed up it was 5:20.  Everybody is happy that we are a full day ahead of schedule.  Back to camp for dinner.  Surprise, it is zebu and rice.  Chatted with the guys a bit, texted with Antje, and took a bucket shower in the dark.  Watched the card game for a bit and called it a night about 8:30.
