On Saturday, our friends the De Jongs invited us over for a braai- South African BBQ. They live on the Harbeestport Dam- "dam" is South African for "lake". All but Lydia had a turn out on the boat. Zeke just jumped off of the boat. Everyone else tried skiing. Amy and Mike both remembered how to waterski from their more youthful days and got up on two skiis just fine. Hailey managed to get up on two skiis after a few tries. Sarah, Nathanael, and Luke had varying levels of success with the help of a "boom" that stuck out the side of the boat that helps beginners learn to ski. It was very fun and we were all very sore the next day.
We soon leave for the Garden Route, which is sort of like South Africa's Big Sur- beautiful coastline, more African game, more dung beetles, Jackass Penguins, beaches, ostrich farms, train rides, and so much more. So big update when we get home.
P.S. Liz Fisher gets a HUGE SHOUTOUT for guessing that Uncle Matt's quiz about the song about the South African freedom fighter, was Peter Gabriel's "Biko". Way to go Liz.
