Safari Time

We ended up leaving the village a day earlier than expected so that afternoon was a rush of trying to pull everything together. We had to pack ourselves and load the vehicle while trying to say goodbye to all the wonderful people we had met. We did get a chicken for E (and to answer your question Sharon, you catch a chicken in a man's yard, tie up its feet, and sit it next to you in the car on the way home, haha).
We drove to a town about 13 hours away and stayed in a missionary couple's house who was out of town for the weekend. They lived at the foot of the mountains and had a gorgeous view from their backyard! Their house was about 1 hour away from a National Park which we went to Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning. Each of us bought a 24 hour pass and we were allowed to take our vehicle through the park. We saw so many animals! Lions, giraffe, swalla, zebra, hippos, wildebeest, cape buffaloes, hyena, dik dik, elands, warthogs, elephants - it was incredible!
Now we are in the city and will spend the next two days here before our flight on Wednesday. I'm wearing a skirt E made me out of the local material and am ready to hit the streets and enjoy the day :)
