So, after our ministry time in Uganda was over, the entire squad went to Jinja, Uganda to experience “Adrift Adventures” which is an amazing company from New Zealand that gives rafting tours and bungee jumps over the Nile. It’s a World Race tradition to do this and almost every squad that has an East African route has gone with Adrift and they come highly recommended from previous racers. I was so excited to go and we all had so much fun doing both things! Don’t worry supporters, none of your amazing and generous donations went to me bungee jumping/rafting. That would be ridiculous. We did this, and all the other “touristy stuff” this year on our own dime not involving your donations in our personal spending money. I wanted to share photos of this amazing adventure with you all and I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!! I seriously feel like Moses is smiling down from Heaven at us, as he spent some time floating down the Nile himself as an infant. 🙂 However, I don’t think little baby Moses rafted CLASS FIVE RAPIDS. I mean, maybe…but probably not. Well, without further ado. HERE YOU GO!!

 


I’m the one in the light pink helmet near the front of the boat!

 


 

Rafting Class V Rapids…we definitely prayed before we started.

 


 

Working hard to stay right side up…

 


 

When we flipped over!!

 


 

Our raft was all girls, and called ourselves TEAM CUPCAKE!! Our guide was Paul (in the back of the raft in the green helmet)

 

 

 

Again, flipping over in a Class V Rapid…this rapid was called “The Nile Special”.

 

 

 

About to jump, with my teammate, Angela Grit!

 


 

AHHH!!!!

 


 

Realizing at this time that we were actually bungee jumping over the Nile…surreal.

 


 

We dunked into the water after this shot, but the trees and bushes were covering the photographer’s view.

I’m so excited for Tanzania, and can’t believe we’re coming into MONTH 10 of the Race. WOW, that’s unbelievable. Thank you for your prayers, support and love and as always, I love you all and miss you so much!!!
