Sorry we haven't updated recently - we're having severe problems with lack of electricity and satellite connections.
Last Saturday was a real treat for us as we were taken to visit Imire Safari Drive. We were driven around in a trailer behind a tractor and saw lots of animals. Lunch was set out for us in a beautiful spot beside the lake. 4 elephants were brought down to play in the water while we watched and we then had a chance to feed them.
On Sunday we went to church and then spent time mending, planning and making things for school. We've made dolls house furniture and dolls, number charts, playdough and shakers. The children enjoy these additions to their usual and basic equipment.
Today, Wednesday, we used the parachute for the first time. The children loved it and there was lots of laughter. There had been a bit more rain but still not all that is needed.
From tomorrow we are being tourists for 5 days. We will travel to Bulawayo to meet up with friends, Amita and Pradip, and then travel on to Hwange Game Reserve and on Saturday we will stay at Victoria Falls. We will return on Marondera on Tuesday. Hopefully we will get a chance to update over the weekend, but if not it will probably not be until Wednesday (electricity permitting!)

Hi Stephanie,Love to read your news. All well at this end and the bookings are coming in. Just hope I have not left the files/folders on your computer in too much of a mess. Really enjoying working at MOH and with David and Steven who have been so helpful.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to hear all your tales and to see all your photos. At least you have missed all our snow and cold. We are off to Yorks at w/end but more snow forecast, so maybe not. Have to wait and see.
Both of you enjoy what little time you have left.
