Showers in Africa

Yes, we do take showers in Africa....

Trip to Town

Mwanza, or just simply town. Had a great time there today. Went to the grocery store, and out to eat. Was nice to go without an agenda. Takes about an hour to get to town, and two million people or so live there, and there is ONE stop light. The stop light is very nice though, never seen one like it before, fancy arrows and everything.

Good Friday - nice to have a day off, so I guess that makes it good. We were supposed to go to town today as a family, but nothing will be open so will go in tomorrow. Guess that means it's time to work on a news letter. Anyway great to have an extra day with family. No Easter plans, maybe we will climb the hill and watch the sun rise.

The beach is a relaxing place on Lake Victoria to hang out. We spent an evening exploring and relaxing. Don't touch the water!! You'll get a nasty parasite.

Safari

Took our national staff on a safari to the Serengeti. They had a great time!! As nationals they can get in cheep, but transportation is a problem. First time for most of them in the park. Got to drive them around, first time driving in the park. Nice rough road, caught a little air a few times. Nothing like a good rally in a Land Cruiser. Awesome to see God's creation up close and in the wild!! Hopefully the whole family can go next time.

Fort Building

Kids decided to build a fort with Uncle Wayne behind the house. Looks like they had a great time, not sure if they did any fort building.

Lake Flies - millions of them everywhere. They come out at night, when the lights are bright. By morning light they perish, and cover everything. Then they rot, and smell like dead fish. Bummer!!
