Thanks again to my amazing teammate Shannon for a TERRIFIC video of our time in South Africa. This has definitely been one of the best months of the race full of adventures like skydiving, laser tag, and the lion park and amazing ministry with the street boys, Children of Fire (www.firechildren.org), manual labor, and the feeding scheme in a nearby township. Dave Brown of Team Spectacle has been our “Dad” for the month as AIM didn’t feel comfortable placing an all girls’ team in Jo-Burg alone, so there is a terrific tribute to him at the end of the video as well. I can’t believe Africa is coming to close as the feeling is bittersweet… sad to leave this amazing continent but excited for what comes in Eastern Europe. Debrief starts tomorrow and then off to Romania on September 3! Internet will be slim to none for the next week at least and then who knows what Romania has in store, but I will write as soon as I can! Thanks for all of your prayers and encouraging comments!
