The Last "Resort"

Our last home away from home!
Upon getting up this morning we still hadn't gotten any replies from any of our stay inquiries so onto the internet we went again.  Gene found a nice little place that looked like it would work and booked the Farm Yard Inn straight away.  We had searched the area for churches to attend and only came up with ones in Africans.  D had a hard time understanding why we weren't going to church as it was Sunday but I think she finally got it(or just forgot it was Sunday).  Our new location has lots of green space for the girls to run, comfy beds and is a quiet retreat before flying out on Tuesday. We have a large room so hopefully I can take some time to organize for the trip home.  We are staying here for 2 nights so allows a little more time to settle.  I'll be glad when I pack up these suitcases for the last time!


Tonight's dinner. . .(guess what's on TV?)
We have stayed at self-catering for a large majority of our stay but since we have been on the road we haven't had the luxury.  When the place we are staying offers something reasonable or extremely delicious we eat there otherwise we make due with what we have.  The current residence comes with breakfast and has a great restaurant which we will use for dinner tomorrow but tonight we are eating our leftovers.  Might as well eat up all those groceries we need to get rid of in the next couple of days anyways.  

This is on our current bedroom wall.
 Pretty sure D owes some money. . . .
Not sure what the saw above it is all about but super funny!
Tomorrow after breakfast Gene and Adam are driving to the Canadian High Commission in Pretoria to pick up Z's passport.   It will be just over an hour from here so we are praying that the trip goes will and will be excited to have that passport in hand!

  1. Hey Esther it is Carolyn Rainsford (Van Drunen) enjoying your blog from here in Australia. I hope you continue to have a safe and enjoyable last few days in SA and am praying you all have a safe journey back to Canada! (I think I saw your blog link in the church bulletin which I still read each week!)
