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.

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.  
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.
