Moonbow

One of the many perks of living in Africa is that there is an abundance of awesome vacation destinations.  This past week I took a trip to Livingstone in the southern-most part of Zambia. Livingstone is the site of Mosi-oa-Tunya ("water that thunders"), also known as Victoria Falls, one of the seven wonders of the natural world. [For more information about Victoria Falls, click here.]

While in Livingstone, I had the privilege of witnessing a moonbow (sometimes called a lunar rainbow), seen by the light of the full moon off the spray of the Falls. What an awesome display of God's beauty in nature!

Double Moonbow!

Introducing Ned & Lloyd

As if life around here weren’t interesting enough, I’ve decided to spice things up even more by bringing two little kittens into my house. Ned and Lloyd are 8 weeks old and have recently come to live with me. They are enjoying exploring a new house with new sounds and smells, and they are trying to remember all the instructions I have given them on where NOT to go to the bathroom J   They are excited about the opportunity to chase spiders and cockroaches and maybe even the occasional mouse or snake.  I am enjoying these sweet little balls of fluff along with challenges of learning to make cat food (actually not as hard as I thought!) and of keeping these little ones from getting into too much mischief.
