"Our Adeventure pt 2..."

 Last weekend, as you know we had a long weekend from work and we went on an adventure.  On of the things we did was go to a place called Ilala Weavers.  The Zulu women sell their craft work their and have a restaurant.  Of couse, we took the opportunity to have an amazing meal.  The kids indulged in milk shakes...a rare treat in Africa for the kids...
Zulu shield and weapons...

We stayed at this extraordinary B&B in Mtubatuba about 3 hours from Appelsbosch-Wendy's Country Cottage http://www.wendybnb.co.za/  It was just like coming into someone home.  When we arrived, Wendy greeted us all with a giant hug...it was so wonderful.

I even indulged in one delicious bath!

Wendy and the kids...
Shereena, one of Wendy's staff, found this adorable kitten.  Of course the kids are longing for a cat since our 18 year old Shadrach died in the early Spring. 
They were in their glory hugging and loving this kitten "Smokey Joe".
Wendy, Toni and their wonderful staff. 
They treated us to a Zulu blessing song for South Africa. 
Thank-you Wendy and Toni for some wonderful memories and embracing us like family.
