We are now full swing in the year's first term with some new kids in the classroom and in the dorm. We had a wonderful break and were able to see Victoria Falls, and it was beautiful and majestic even if it was rainy through the whole trip. At almost 2 km (more than a mile) wide and 100 meters high, they aren't the widest or tallest in the world but form the biggest falling curtain of water in the world and are a spectacular sight to see.
We even got to walk quite close to the country's only remaining white rhino, and he was HUGE! We got some nice video and pictures with the escort of armed wildlife officials who protect him 24 hours a day in the national park from poaching, which is why there is only one left in the country.
We have some new children in the dorm in Grade 1 who are learning how things work and even two who are not too familiar with plumbing and electricity and don't speak much English. It is an adventure every day, and we are having fun. Look forward to some new pictures hopefully coming soon of the new students. Have a great week!
