Victoria falls and Botswana trip

Hi all! we just wanted to keep you up to date a little with whats going on, two months of scrubbing on hands and knees is starting to take its toll on both of us but this past weekend has really been a break much needed! We took the weekend away with 6 others from the project to see Victoria falls and also to do a land and boat safari in Botswana. We had a very special weekend and were so excited to see the gorgeous animals and SO close at times it was scary! So here are couple of photos from the trip and to the right> will be some more for you to look at soon.
Briefly on the work side of things at last this week the painting has started on the residents roof and already the building we've been working on is 3/4 painted so progress at last seems to be showing! To give you some idea of the size, the dimensions show that we're working on a building similar in size to Noah's ark!
We also hope that your all ok back home and that you've enjoyed your assembly's, ours is next week We're so looking forward to sitting down for 3 days! keep in touch x from us x

Good fun and MUCH laughing. Here are the Lady's a mixture of Missionary's International volunteers and long term Bethelites. Smashing group!
