Btv , national anthem and local music video

Just to give you an idea of the local television station, here's a video promo for "BTV", our television station here.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_I7_ci-48so
You can find anything on "You Tube"...... Here's the national anthem of Botswana

And here's a music video shot in the parking lot of one of our strip malls. I think it is BBS mall, where we rent our movies at "Vee's Videos"

I've got lots for you to watch today... because i don't have much else to report.. We are heading to Odi this afternoon, Kate has a birthday party and sleepover to go to..... Odi is one of my favorite villages .. after that... who knows...... the weather is still gorgeous and i plan on getting all the kids out and running around somewere... I think.

One last video to lay on you before i go........... In August, michelle, Jacob and I will head with his class to the salt pans where Jacob and his classmates will hike for 33 kms. to raise money for cancer patients here. Jacob will begin training for this in the next few weeks..... We will go there, set up tent and camp for a weekend. if you want to see what this looks like, check this out......
It is amazing looking, a bit creepy in terms of how desolate it is, but apparently in the middle of this is an amazing baobab tree forest... so we got that going for us... I can't wait for this trip...not any animals, except scorpions, some antelope and meerkats.
