The African Flat



In Africa we call this a boarding or a flat. Our flat is on the second floor between the trees. Elder Herbert is standing on our little deck. This is the courtyard of our boarding. You can't see it in the pictures but it is surrounded by a 6-ft fence with points on the top. It's on the outside of the buildings. There are locks on the stairway doors and we have a barred gate over our front door that locks and our front door locks. Three different keys to get in our door. And that's not counting the padlock on the garage!






Elder Herbert is now sitting in the living room - we put the table in here, so we can eat in a cuter room. I am taking the picture from the door to the deck. You can see a little of the mirror in our entry hallway.




This is our cute little kitchen that is easy to work in and easy to clean. I made 7 loaves of banana bread for zone conference in this little kitchen and it went pretty well. We didn't get a pic of our cute little fridge. It is shorter than I am and we really have to be careful not to buy too much or we can't get it all in. You can barely see the toaster by the plugs - the microwave and fridge are over there too. We really do have a great little life here!
