Life is different here - will let the pics tell the story ...
 |
| My elephant sized beetle I picked up and threw outside! |
 |
| A giant centipede - one of millions that are everywhere you walk! |
 |
| A GIANT spider as big as a horse which I had to kill before it crawled into bed with me! |
 |
| Claude (pronounced Cloud) one of my special boys - is 15 yrs old but the size of about a 10 yr old |
 |
| The beautiful African Tulip Tree (I think - they call it something else) |
 |
| Frogs eggs by the dam - I destroyed as many as I could LOL |
 |
| This I am learning to do! I can carry some small things without dropping them - just have to do the big pots of water! |
 |
| My iron, but I usually get someone else to do it for me - not quite experienced enough yet to tackle this one! |
 |
| The children with Paula the present Administrator |
 |
| Just love this picture of Kuku - gorgeous boy |
 |
| This is Linda seeing her home for the last time - they kicked her out and she turned up at my door at 8.00 one night after walking all day and nothing to eat for 2 days - looked bedragged and dirty and tired and very sad - she is now very happy |
 |
| Some of my kids after making walk up this rock face - fun times |
 |
| My darling little Moses - 2 years old - miss him greatly |
 |
| View from my back door - it is very dry, but when it rains this will be planted |
 |
| Pouring the water after winding it up from deep in the weell |
 |
| Our well |
 |
| Everyone develops good muscles from winding up the water and tipping it into the buckets to carry back to the orphanage |
 |
| Carrying our water back to the orphanage from the well |
 |
| My bath, I can just fit in it if my knees are up to my chin! |
 |
| Triplets - their mum and grandmother came to the orphanage looking for help as they were an unexpected surprise! They are 2 months old |
 |
| Taking the kids to school in the back of the Nissan each morning |
 |
| This is what you do when you don't have a pair of shoes |
 |
| A pep talk from the Pathfinder leader - Claude couldn't stay the first night as he had to have a blood test at 5.00 am the next morning and was a little upset |
 |
| Ploughing our fields as the tractor is broken |
 |
| Yep I'm transport for the pathfinders as well in the "beast" which rattles and bangs - first trip their gear and a few sitting on top, next trip the rest of the children |
