Christmas Cleaning!

A "good Saramaccan woman" washes her house before New Years Day every year. It is just like the American spring cleaning tradition. Well, our hut was getting pretty gross, so Ryan and I pulled EVERYTHING out of the front room and scrubbed down the walls and floor. Talk about a dirty job. I am glad we did it, though. We organized and got rid of a lot of stuff. Less work to do in 5 months when we move back to the states!

Of course, Lefurny wanted to help. Here she is scrubbing down a shelf.
