A few days away to refresh our spirits and just be together as a family (yes we have adopted Paige into our family so she will be in our pics too).
We went a little sign happy on this trip because pretty much everywhere we went there were warnings of crocs, hippos, or leopards. We did see crocs and hippos on this trip but not one leopard (much to the kids disappointment).
Funniest sign EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bryan was driving around a corner and had to slam on the breaks because this big guy was in our way and he was in no hurry to get out of our way either. We were almost late getting out of the park because he walked along the road and blocked us from passing him for aver 15 minutes.
The kids enjoyed taking pics with funny/scared looks on their faces. Here, Mercy and Faith have a crocodile behind them on the shore, Thankfully they are safe in a boat.
Having a few days off campus and to ourselves was just what we all needed as a family. I had a lot of time to think and reflect and focus on the important things in life. It was also a great way for our family to get to know Paige more and see her reactions to the ocean and wildlife of South Africa. We will be jumping right back into the busy life of being directors as we have a few adoptions to look forward to this week, and many projects.
Amazing to see an elephant that closely!! Glad you had time together to relax and enjoy God's creation.
