Mrs. Broodryk and her granddaughter Julinda (silent "J") Broodryk. On this day Julinda was visiting and they invited me on a trip to Nisela Game Reserve. We didn't do a drive, but did enjoy a drink at the restaurant. The Broodryks live in my community and own the butchery and bar at A One. Mrs. Broodryk calls me her "Imported American Swazi Daughter". I have learned so much about the history of the area and SA, plus am picking up a few Afrikaans words from them! Now Julinda has moved back home to the farm with her father and grandmother. They are a wonderful family.
This is a fellow Group 7 volunteer named Vanessa. She works with Cabrini in her community and invited a whole bunch of us to assist with their community wide health fair. The children in the orphanage helped us the night before to blow up all the balloons.
Lots of balloons and lots of children. Rachel and Tristan (in the back) are also two of my closest friends here in Swaziland.
There were many pictures taken during the December Baylor Camp ("Sivivane Camp"), but per guidelines we are unable to post any pictures that could disclose a camper's status to the public. Thus, here is a picture of me and two other amazing Activity Leaders being ridiculously silly for an evening activity.
Also at the Baylor Camp,there were outdoor games, competitions, activities, and just all around fun times to be had by all!
