Homeward Bound

Well, we couldn't enjoy our vacation forever, and eventually hit the road again, this time bound for home. Well, we left the place we were staying at (in Nelspruit) at 5 and didn't get out of the town till 7. Yah, we got lost. We were kinda frustrated about that, but God had a plan all along. We got to the border crossing and there was a long line! We didn't know that that day all the Mozambicans were fleeing South Africa due to all the violence there. Anyways, if we had gotten to the border right when it had opened, we would have been in the middle of a mad rush. Instead, God let us get lost so that we would get to the border late and see the HUGE like and decide to try the other border. Well, the other one was the South Africa/Swaziland border. Everything went smoothly and we got through fine. And it was exciting to get another stamp in our passports:) Then we drove through Swaziland till we hit Mozambique, it was about an extra 2 hours, but nothing compared to the long hours we would have had to wait at the other border crossing! God is good! And His plans are amazing!
"'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the LORD,' plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.'"-Jeremiah 29:11


While driving we crossed over the Tropic of Capricorn! So cool!

A very quaint place we stayed at:) It was like Jungle Camp all over again:)

Our car:)

Early morning road.

The normal view of the road... except with large potholes :)

Dad, our expert driver!

Back in town! This is a lil' bit of the town we live in:)


We got home last Friday, and are now back on a schedule:) Yeah!
