Today was our 2nd last full day in Mzuzu. In the morning Celia and Anne went to visit a coffee factory in Mzuzu arranged by Fr. Eugene. They both came back brimming with information about the process of coffee and also honey to entertain Bernadette. During our stay we have all enjoyed the Mzuzu coffee and we were interested to learn that it should be on sale in Scotland very shortly under the Fair Trade arrangements. In the afternoon we paid our last visit to the Mary Martha Orphans Centre to say our goodbyes. 3 of the orphans from the senior youth section entertained us with a short comedy play about modern life in Malawi; this was followed by the orphans in the nursery singing some songs. Bernadette gave the Centre 100,000 kwachas from donations from people back home in Scotland. On behalf of Mary Martha Roderick Kavouta assured us the money would be put to very good use in finishing the Centre's new building and helping to fund the various services provided. In the evening we were invited to Irene Jere's home for a delicious traditional Malawian meal.
