It has been awhile since we have been able to post. As we promised, we wanted to show you some pictures from our trip to Nsobe Camp (about 2 hours southeast of here). We spent 2 days with a few of our friends over our half-term break. There is a nice lake with crocodile free dams, so we were able to canoe. They also offer safari jeep tours through the game drive to view the animals. We found 3 giraffes, many varieties of antelope and a herd of zebras. They even allow you to take a walk through the bush and we happened to come across the giraffes. We were able to get very close to them. It was amazing.


Today we had a farewell service for the Grade 12's (not same age as a US Grade 12 student, more like Grade 10/11 age) but they left the school after finishing their exams this week and are now off to A-levels (from the British education system) or trade school. There are about 4 weeks left in the term, and we are looking forward to a month long break in December in which we can prepare for the next year and maybe relax a bit too :-). It certainly won't be a white Christmas, more like a 90 degree day with a rain-storm probably, but we will enjoy it nonetheless and celebrate with some friends here. Hope to post again soon!
