Second, this will be the last post for a couple weeks, I am going on a two week holiday and doubt I will have time to post (same goes for email etc.)
And now for weekend adventures!
Saturday Terry and I met up with Bethany (a woman that we met at Eden, she has been doing some water education with the students) and went down to the Knysna Heads. They are gorgeous and we had a great time playing on them, picking up shells, and wading in the Indian Ocean.
Sunday I went with Xander, Suzi, Ryan, and Zenthia to a waterfall about a half mile from campus. It (like everything else here) was beautiful. Although unfortunately this picutre has the recently burned section of hill in the background, but that is where everyone was sitting so that is the picture I took.
After the waterfall we went down to Sedgefield and played on the beach for a little while. It was getting really cold as the sun was setting so we didn't stay for long, but hopefully somewhere that we will get to hang out some more.
Other accomplishment this week: I mailed some post cards. Really not that exciting of an accomplishment, but according to the Karatara post office it costs just a little more to send a post card from South Africa to the United States, then from the United States to the United States. I paid 5.10 Rand, or about 63 cents to mail two postcards. (I am not sure that I trust this, I am going to try sending the next ones from a different post office and see how much it costs me).
And now for my random South African observation, I haven't seen a single airplane since I have been here. I have seen a couple of jet trails, but that is it. Only adds to the quiet of the farm (which I am quite enjoying).
Thanks so much for sharing, Liza. Robert and I
