Hey everyone,
I had a great day today. We woke up at 4 a.m. and went on a lion hunt. Basically we let out 4 of the big lions and we follow them in a truck to see if they kill on their own. There were some definite possibilities but no kill today. Usually these guys get a kill but not today. Amazing to see them in hunting mode. Afterwards we went over to the local orphanage and visited with the children for 2 hours. It was amazing to do but I did get a little misty eyed at one point. I ended up giving them my camera, video camera and ipod and they went crazy taking pictures...230 in total. This one girl could basically have a contract for signing tomorrow that's how good she was. Some of the kids did have signs of nasal infections and Scabies but they all were smiling and playing. I can't wait to go back there next Saturday.
We've been having a really good time as a group as well. We also have 4 cats here that we feed everyday and sometimes they sleep with us. We have Taz, Fatty (he's ok with this!!), Isabelle and Anti-christ. AC is a little crazy and unpredictable hence the name!!
We off to a lion walk..i think. We are being pelted on by a rain storm again so we will see.
