“I know, Lord, that our lives are not our own. We are not able to plan our own course. So correct me, Lord, but please be gentle. Do not correct me in anger, for I would die.”

Jeremiah 10:23-24


But blessed are those who trust in the Lord and have made the Lord their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought. Their leaves are green, and they never stop producing fruit.”

Jeremiah 17:7-8

Mary visits Africa!!

So Mary Beiker came to visit me for 11 days and we had such an awesome time!! The first picture is of Mary and one of the kids from Christine Revell Childrens Home. We took two of the kids on an outing her first day here and it was so much fun!! She also went with me to the SOS Children's Village Kindergarten to meet the kids there as well. Then we embarked on non-stop site-seeing!! There's so much to do here and we had a packed itenerary!! We went up Table Mountain, down to Cape Point, went to the Waterfront, Kirstenbosch Gardens, travelled over to Knysna and Plettenberg Bay and went on a safari, fed elephants, saw penguins, had a spa day, went shopping at the market and at the mall! Saw a movie that had one of my friends here, Philip as an extra, he had 3 close-ups though! He went to the movie with us, so that was super cool! We ate tons of fabulous food.....it was just and incredible time!! The only negative was she chickened out on the bungy jump, but most of you are probably saying, "good for you, Mary!"

If this makes you jealous at all (and it should!) come on down!!! I love playing tour guide!!! If you want to see more pics from our adventures, you can check out her blog...... marybeiker.blogspot.com
