Our car is here, but it's going to take several days....

The car has finally made it... After many painstaking weeks, it is in Gaborone, but we have some paperwork that needs to be worked out, and that could take until the end of the week. That's how things move here, and you don't necessarily want to rock the boat, or else you will never get what you want.

All is well, we had an uneventful weekend except for our quick drive through the Gaborone Game Reserve. I don't know how to explain the Reserve, it is literally 3 minutes from our house, and its like a "Fantasy Farm " sort of Game Reserve, but the kids love it and it's good for some game viewing.

We stumbled on some marsh lands yesterday and did some amazing bird viewing.. Real flamingoes in flight and all kinds of other birds of which I know none of their names. We chased an ostrich and drove through water(kate's favorite part).We thought we spotted some crocs, so took off. I don't think there were any, but as a precaution I made Kate take off her meat suit. The pics on this posting are of a bird that makes a nest that hangs upside down on a branch. They are all over the place here and the birds are a bright yellow. The other pics are of lunch time at Northside School. The one picture is of Kate and her friend Hannah.

All for now..
