More from the Wedding...

Our Beach Wedding!

Driving down to Malibu in the rain was a bad start, but then the sun and dolphins came out for a perfect day for a beach wedding.

Off to See the Animals!

Next we head to Yankari where we hope to see lots of elephants and lions and not so many mango-stealing baboons. We'll have a few relaxing days doing day trip safaris out into the jungle. Then relax in the afternoon or evening at the warm springs.

So far time has flown by. At the hospital we've had some amazing stories of patients and weird spells and voodoo causing unconsciousness and illness. Yesterday one of the residents pulled a stone on a string out of one patient's mouth and he instantly regained consciousness. Strange stuff!

We've been eating our fill of mangos, pineapples and bananas. Lots of fun animals to play with.

We'll be in London next and then back to SoCal.

Nigerian Happenings

"Baba" waiting for us to pick him up for church on Sabbath.

Here's some pictures of the proposal site if you haven't seen them yet. Yes, it's true, i'm engaged! Kimball suprised me in front of the most beautiful waterfall we had ever seen. OK, maybe we were just really hot from the jungle trek to get there.

Hope all is well where ever you are. I will be back in the States June 6. The wedding will be July 30 if possible. (I know, we're crazy...but who can make it to a New Zealand wedding?)

Ekaro! Welcome to Nigeria!

We just rolled in as the tail end of the storm headed out...lots of downed mango and banana and pineapple trees, but still plenty to go around! People here are great!...they say we're living in the original spot where Adam and Eve originated...Ile Ife, Nigeria! No pics yet, but will have plenty to share soon, of fruit bats, the jungle, and locals. Pray for electricity and a steady water supply...

San Diego

Just got back from Big Sur and San Fran a couple weekends ago. Then San Diego and La Jolla. Yeah, we work...

Next off to Black Rock Canyon!

we're off to black rock canyon canoe camping with stops along the way for natural hot springs and waterfalls. we're going with the wilderness med group and teaching them whitewater rescue. come along if you want...it's supposed to be pretty easy paddling and no whitewater to speak of (sadly for me).

just to remind all you poor people left behind when we move to new zealand for a year, now's the time to start your travel funds so you can come visit. i've been told february is the month to visit...good weather and not too many people. anyway, come when you can, we'll be there, ready for more adventures.
