Margie the English teacher

Just thought you might like to see some of my English class! We have up to 20 students, the lady in orange is Aune - the director.

How's the weather?

Since it has been so long since we have blogged, we thought we would start with something REALLY interesting.....like the weather!

It's raining in Windhoek!!! We have never lived in a place with a designated "wet season" so we have never felt the excitement when the rains finally come! It hasn't even looked like rain since March. The smell is amazing, like God has given the baked earth a refreshing shower!

We planted a Lillipilli in our garden today. It is nice to have a little bit of Aus just outside the kitchen window.

Cricket Camp

Let us just take you back in time a little - since we have been a tad slack in the blogging world!!!

In the last school holidays, Margie, Maddie and Noah headed over to the coast (4 hours drive) so Noah could play in a cricket tournament. It is amazing how many beautifully green cricket grounds they have in the desert. Noah's team was a 'development team'! So we were all very excited as they scored more runs every game they played and they even one a match! Noah was awarded the 'Team Player of the tournament' and even recieved a medal.

Maddie and I were shown around Swakopmund - the tourist town - by a local, so we now know where to buy gelato in Namibia!!! Yummmmmmm
