Family Walk













Well we decided last weekend we were sick of sitting in the house bored...so we took a family walk. The walk seem to turn into a dangerous little hike...lol. As we were walking up and down the hills,cars would zip by at great speeds. There was no safe sidewalk and there were tons of the scary thorn bushes on our sides. So on one side were the thorns and to the other the cars. The plan when we left was to find lunch at a little market area...which are very common for this area. However we walked for some time and found nothing. So in a heated and hungry state we found a lovely upscale hotel. The kids enjoyed there fancy water and french sandwiches. As we were leaving Elias was being a boy goofing off and fell flat on his face. There was the loudest smack...and then blood and screaming!! Wow did we feel out of place and odd as everyone stared at us. The good news is Elias was fine very soon after we left the hotel. Then we took a ride from the hotel shuttle..the man was very nice and wanted to take us. The funny thing was he took us the complete opposite direction from our house. He had thought we asked to go the the Residence Hotel...we were saying home. After a confusing shuttle ride we made it home. I put some pics of some of the things we saw on our walk.

The water is beautiful! I never imagined that Africa looked like that! I'm sure though that you must be home sick. I'll say it again that you are very brave to take on such an adventure..and pregnant at that! Would you mind posting some pics of your pregnant belly like Tiffani does? I LOVE seeing belly pictures. From the above pic, you look so tiny for 18 weeks!
