 Rick took 3 loads of laundry to the Elders flat to wash.  They don’t have water either, however, he can use the water from the big rain water tank that is there. 

 Their washer is just one step ahead of Sister Dells, as it will also spin in the same tub.  But it is small enough that you can actually fit it in the back seat of one of our cars.  While Rick was at the Elders flat, they returned from Port Elizabeth. 

 Elder Alexander is now a trainer and Elder Clarke, from Glendale, Arizona is his new companion and fresh out of the MTC in Johannesburg.  He is fairly quiet, but with time he will be just fine.
