zomba holiday!

On Monday I took off down south to go to Zomba (pronounced with a long o sound). It has offically made my list of most beautiful places on earth. It looked a lot like the coastal range in Oregon, but with many waterfalls and the occasional palm tree.
This is butterfly falls. I walked barefoot up it. It's really smooth rock that the water flows over.

This one is called William's Falls.


This is Vicki and I. She is going to be my new roomate. Please note that I am wearing my jacket only because it had just poured rain. Not really because I was cold. It did get cold at night- which was wonderful, but day time was pretty warm.


This is the view as we were driving down. So pretty. Look at the clouds!

This is Vicki buying mangos on the side of the road. Awesome.


The big daddy baboon. At this point we were all carrying rocks in our hands just in case. But he stopped just a few feet off the road and posed for a picture. I couldn't resist. They're pretty ugly creatures.
It was a great holiday. I feel refreshed and as ready for school as I ever will be, I suppose. We start on Monday after a whole month off. I'm excited to see my kiddos, but not really for the marathon days to start back up again. Thanks for the blog comments, emails and of course your prayers. Missing and loving you all!
