Sorry for the last no message here I go.
I had a great training at the Lilly of the Valley Orphanage, 35 folks, half women working in the orphanage and half grannies and community people, The training went very well.
We spent the next day at the Zulu village, got to see how the people live and work. The beehive hut was very fun but no airconditioning and no windows so it was a hot night. We almost missed our plane to the Kruger beccause of mis information by several locals about how long it would take. We made it and flew on a small plane to a little town, were picked up bya local guide and distributed to the lodge. It is great. We have been on 2 game drives and it has been incredible. WE have seen up close lions, leppards, elephants, rhinos. and lots of zebra, kuku, a puffer snake, turtle and a baby pet bat.
WE have 3 more game drives and a bush walk still to go the food is great and the staff is very fun.
We leave for Cape Town on Sunday and are home next Friday, It seems hard to believe that I have been here already for 3 weeks and have only one left. The trip has been wonderful. I have great pictures to share and will get them out once I get home.

When I grow up, I hope to be just like you Aunt Joan! From your descriptions it sounds as if the human spirit is alive despite the people being surrounded by disease and political unrest. That is a truly awesome and powerful notion! See you soon! Kim
