Cousins

                                               Yesterday
Yesterday day the day of sight seeing and seeing my cousins!!!!!! We went sight seeing "they were beautiful seats we got to sit in". I even got my own window and every thing! We even stopped at a grocery store and got food and lunch!!But the best thing was that we got our own vehicle and we were in it for 7 hours! It was a car we were stuck in for 7 hours.   It was not exciting ):
              
                                       Today
 Today we went on a hike in the morning.  we wanted to go to the bushman paintings but someone else wanted to go to the Sphinx but we ended up going to the bushman paintings in the end. Then we went back to our house and ate lunch. Then we played soccer and played chess. Then we braai with chicken and chops. And now I am blogging .

I miss you all sooooooooo much and I will continue to miss you.
Sending my love,
Sarah Sollinger (:

Sending a shout out to Eden: 
We missed Oxbow because, in the end, there was no Oxbow.  Literally, Oxbow was not there.  It is on the map, but the village seemed to have moved. It is cold at night but during the day it is very nice. We are coming back on July,11 2013

Lesotho

Today, the day of adventures. It all began with the words of wisdom coming from my mouth "mommy I'm hungry when will we get breakfast" I wined. The breakfast was  pretty good (a breakfast of the kings: eggs and tea). The day had just started. To the town we went, we stopped at a bakery to pick up stuff for picnic lunch. After that we moseyed over to  a very nice blanket shop (very persuasive people because we got 3 blankets). 

From the blanket shop, we hit the road.  Up & over up &over went the car with the cool people.  Putin' on their shades (mostly me I was in the sun). We were driving and suddenly we saw a ski resort with a full blown ski slope (just remember we're in the middle of Africa).  Before we left We had stopped at a store and bought 4bags of  maize meal (which is like matzo meal so don't leave Sally by her self with it). We drove for hours to see a town called oxbow it was beautiful besides the fact that we never got there.  apparently you don't need much to get on a map. So the cool people  started to drive down the mountain. Then they saw a group of people that were very poor ( I don't think I mentioned that the country Lesotho was very poor). We took the maize meal and gave them the 4 boxes. They were sooooooo happy!!!!!!!! We started down the mountain and had dinner at Bens favorite place Nandos. Now the cool people are at their hotel at lions rock.

I know all this info about the cool people because I am one of them(:
By-by, adios, shalom and tot sins

Albino Lion

After I blogged we went on a trip in a trip. The day was blue and you could hear the lions. The lions were hungry (very hungry). We were headed in their direction the wind was in our faces and the sights were good. Our tour guide was  at first not explaining much  but then it began. We got 10 feet away from them. They could eat 400 kg.  a day, one of the lions was looking at me and thinking "yumm lunch" but in my case I am more like a tooth pick. There were 12 of them. Today was feeding day, we got to watch it all ( they ate cow).  The sun was setting so we started to head home but we made one more stop.We stopped at the albino lion cage. We can safely say my dad made a new friend. The travelers  were watching with suspense to see what the lion was going to do. And sure enough the lion did something it did something surprising. The lion ran at my dad ( but  there was a metal fence in-between them . My dad ran like a little girl (it was a little funny) . Today was one of the best days ever!!!!!!!

Up up and away to lions rock

Yesterday we went on a 7 hour flight (but both me and ben threw up 2).Today we went a 10 hour plain ride (  luckily no one puked but ill get to that in a minute).  We got off the plane  and got in a car for 3 hours ):  But we got the most beautiful  place on earth!!!!!  At Lions Rock there are lions (of course), water buffalo , zebra and all sorts of buck. Today was awesome!!!

Trip from the trip

We drove to our campsite. It was so hot all of us woke up at midnight. It Was too hot to sleep so we had to come to a hotel. Which had air conditioning and a pool, the two things you need. The next day we went to Arches, a national park. We did the delicate arch hike. It was really cool. It was very hot walking but it was worth it. I like walking back better than there. It goes faster. Mom says. I complain less on the way home. Then we took a nap. And me and mom took a nap and Ben read his book in the bathtub so we could read. Daddy went back to get the campsite to take down the tent. Then when we woke up we went on another hike. We went on the negro bill trail. It was partially in water and we skipped rocks. On a scale from one to ten it was an 8. Then we went to dinner at Moab diner. It was good. Then we got to swim. Mom said it was prewash before our showers. Even mom and dad swam. And then we went in the hot tub. Then I went to sleep. More tomorrow. SLEEP!!!!!!!!
