The Last Hurrah

As we prepare to leave South Africa in a couple of weeks, he are making sure we fit in one last time at some of the kids' favorite places.  This has included one last hair cut at Kiddo Cuts - the girls' favorite salon where they watch movies, color, get suckers and balloons, and, of course, get their hair cut. Here are their salon do's.


We have also gone to the Bird Gardens again, just a half a mile up the road.  In addition to seeing lots of birds and watching a great bird show, the girls also got their faces painted.


Next, we went to Old MacDonald's Farm where we saw some farm animals and played on the playground.

Then we visited the "big slide" where the girls took one last trip in intertubes down a huge incline.  This was the first time Kaelia would go on the tubes by herself because she has been a little scared in the past.  But this time, not only did she conquer that fear, but she was the first to put her hands up in the air on her way down the slide, and then convinced Taelyn to do it too.


Finally, over our last weekend in South Africa, we went out to various places in a Mini Cooper limo!  First, we took the girls around the block for a spin, and then the adults took over.  We spent the night with four other good friends - the people that we have been closest with during the last four years.  Of the six of us, four  moved to South Africa together, and five are now moving on to other countries.
