The WILD

We were blessed this week to go on safari. We all had a great time and saw some of God's beautiful creations. We shared this experience with some friends, Phil, Hannah, Peter and William, which made it even more FUN! We visited Murchison Falls National Park, saw the falls from the top and bottom, took the "African Queen" down the Nile, saw TWO female lions, one with a cub in its mouth, giraffe, hippos, crocodiles, monkeys, elephants, baboons, birds, jackson heartbeast, warthogs, and had a baboon get in our van and take a trash bag out, while some of us were still in van. We stayed at a lodge that was up on a hill overlooking the Nile. It is awesome to be out on the African savannah, like a dream! We serve an amazing God who loves us and blesses us with what we need right when we need it. God blessed me with a few wonderful days with my family and friends.
