first visitors!

Our beloved friends, Mickey and Carol Berberian, just left. They spent the past 4 days with us and it was wonderful! They were on their way home from accompanying their daughter Christina and Victor as they brought baby Yohani home to Mozambique for the first time! So this was a bonus treat for us...and we are so grateful it could happen!

We heard stories from Mozambique, showed them our new place, drove on crazy roads, walked among the giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, antelope on Crescent Island...and shopped in the Maasai Market. We saw the locales for Out of Africa and Born Free and obsessed about Lord Delamere. They got a good feel for some of the experiences Warren is having at the hospital, as he was working in and around our adventures. They heard of some of the pitfalls of this kind of medicine...and some of the bad outcomes that can come as a result of minimal resources...like death, quite a lot of it actually! But they also got to meet some of the wonderful people he is working alongside.

It will be quiet without them here now...unfortunately I doubt they will get by without taking our horrid colds with them, so we will be forefront in their memory for a few more days!

Tonight I will put up pictures from our Crescent Island visit, one of the most surreal, magical...out of this world places I have ever been.
