it took so long.

Well, how do I sum up the time thus far in this land that I really do love.
Here are some photos from the lovely Reinette of South Africa. I have some of my own that I will upload a little later, for now. Enjoy these.
Sorry it has taken so long. I have been trying since Sunday but the internet has not been on my side.



this is our amazing dining room where we enjoy home cooked Filipino food almost everyday. Melinda, the cook, hopes to open a restaurant one day.


On this day we went to visit a birth center for the first time, we are now doing prenatal checks and immunizations there.


Elections are happening. I will send a movie shortly of what that loaded phrase entails. For now, this is mayor James "Bong" Gordon, hoping to be re-elected. He has my vote.


Taking a stroll on the beach. I'm clearly still in the Mu slim world with my head wrapped and all.


These are the lovely children of 12th Street, we go often during the week to be with the pregnant moms as well as these little cherubs.

Anyone can always come and get their BP taken. always a great time to love and people and send up some pra*yers for miracles!

we thank the u.s. navy for our transport.


These are the base leaders, community developers, loveliest of most lovely people.
