    (Ursula) Sleeping was a nightmare!

    A mosquito tormented me all night, buzzing around my ears just as I was about to drift off. And it wasn’t just the noise—they bit too! Somehow, despite our mosquito net, they found a way inside the cabin. Heinz kept turning on the lights, swatting them whenever he could. Between the relentless heat, humidity, and this never-ending battle, it was an absolutely miserable night.

    I spent most of today recovering while Heinz worked on the camper, rechecking the valve clearance. He also put up For Sale signs around the school compound and spread the word among our camper friends.

    In the evening, we escaped to the city for a drink—mostly to get away from the mosquitos. But soon, drinks turned into dinner. The real challenge? Finding a place with prices we could actually digest.
