Time to play 'catch up' again!!!  Such is my life!

As you read from Nathan's letter, we were in Cape Town for the first 10 days of January for his 'new teeth'.  In addition to receiving direction from the Lord to "return" to Knysna instead of going to Swaziland, Nathan also showed me many of the stomping grounds that formed his life growing up in Cape Town.  I have included some of my favorite pictures.  If you ever have the opportunity to spend time in Cape Town, it would truly require a couple of weeks and maybe even a month to do it justice.  I felt like I was on a whirl wind tour.  

Thanks to the generosity of Cape Town YFC, we were able to spend much of our stay at their international volunteer house on Blaauberg Beach.  Literally one block from the ocean, and ideal for morning and evening walks to commune with God.

One special event I have no picture for (the one day Nathan pleaded that I not bring the camera for our morning beach walk, I must admit, I couldn't get enough pictures of Table Mountain).  At Big Bay (the northern part of Blaauberg Bay) a school of dolphins (minimum 100) were feasting on fish for breakfast.  They ate for about 1/2 hour, and when the eating was finished they celebrated the fine meal the the Lord provided by playing.  I'm talking major jumping, flipping, some times 3-4 in unison... just like you see at Sea World... only they frolicked for at least a hour before moving on and there was no one prompting the show!  It was one of the most amazing productions of God's creation I have witnessed!  But it remains a memory for only Nathan and I... sorry!  :)
