Yay Amy! I'm so proud of you for going on your trip and feel like a dork that I didn't get to talk to you in the planning stages. I keep thinking of you and trying to picture you in SA, so thanks for the pics to help me have clearer visions! I keep hoping you'll run into Desmond Tutu somehow although I know it's a ridiculous wish.
That is amazing, Rebekah told me about these pictures and I had to come a nd take a look, I hope that all is well AJ!

I am in love with all of your photos and can't wait to hear more details. It seems like a life changing experience - I am jealous but am living vicariously, thanks for the photo post!!
These images are spectacular! How I miss new places, faces, architecture, scenery. It seems like you must be having an amazing time. Thanks for blogging a bit!
btw, were you at a wildlife park? I think I might freak out if I saw those animals on a regular basis!
Looks like a beautiful place!
Mountains the sea, vineyards, cute kids...
Hope you had a great time!
