Guess what ELSE we found...

We had to travel to Windhoek (the capital city of Namibia) for a language-acquisition course that was required for us (which will help us as we learn Afrikaans, and greetings in the local languages), and on our way back to Arandis today we saw this scene...


I hope you can see what the picture is of, but in case you can't tell - we saw some giraffe.

Guess what we found...

So, we're on our way to do the kind of stuff we came here to do (you know, work with orphaned and vulnerable children) and we almost ran this thing over...


And so, of course, he became our mascot for the day...


But, we had to let him (or her) go (how does one know which with a chameleon??). In case you're wondering, chameleons really do change colors. We tried it on Jessa's pink shirt, though, and I think it's abilities were a little stretched then.

Anyhow, I know we owe you an update on our ministry efforts, but we've been so busy with the children lately and also with trying to get the house updated/renovated so we can move in that we have had very little time to spare. Coming soon though...
