the rest of mom's visit

Stayed close to Nkhoma for the rest of the visit. Hour long trips away—to Dedza the pottery place, and Lilongwe for last minute shopping…of course we had to take the local transport—minibuses which weren’t quite as spacious as the big buses we took to the falls…for example as I’ve said four bench seats in a minibus…at home that would hold maybe 15 people…on our way to Dedza we managed 25 and a bicycle in the bus. Only two were infants. (and mom still got on one more minibus during her stay)
