Flying Ants

WEll this will be quick, not much battery left. One not so enjoyable part about living here is the termites. Often when it rains the termites send out one of their species that flies. I guess these are looking to start new colonies. All I know is they are anoying. They have 4 wings and after flying awhile, they shed their wings and crawl away. Well last night we were awakened by the sound of something flying outside our mosquito net. Well when we turned on the light, there were many flying termites in our room. Yuck!! So Geoff gets up to go and find the bug spray and as he passes the bathroom, the same noise is there, but only louder. Looking in AAARRRGH. MANY!!!!!!!! We live on a termite nest and they were coming in some holes in the floor and trying to repopulate our house. once again YUCK!!! then the power went out so we couldn't see where we were stepping, quick get some shoes on!! All this will surely wake you out of a deep sleep at 5am. Anyway, that was our night. One of the not so glorious parts of being a missionary. More on this one later
