No Movement Day!

Today is yet another No Movement Day! That means that we aren't allowed out on the roads from 7am to 4pm today. the reason for the restrictions is that there is some sort of vote happening today and to stem any protests, riots, violence, etc., they (the government) make everyone stay at home (I believe the locals can walk to the nearest voting center). No businesses are open and you can get arrested for going out on the roads if you're not careful.

So, today we slept-in, ate our typical lazy-day breakfast of french toast, and then headed over to the school compound to watch a movie on the big screen in my classroom! We were hoping it would get sunny so we could lay out near the pool, but there was yet another big lightning storm last night and the weather hasn't cleared up since then.

It's nice to have an excuse to do nothing all day though!
