Off shift activities

Hopefully you have been following Allyson's blog, as I have been doing quite a poor job of updating this one. I have put a few pictures up on flickr with comments, but it's not the same.

Time goes by very quickly when we are off-shift. Basically, we spend 3 nights at the orphanage, and 3 nights in Capetown. The day we get back, we are usually too tired to do much. We have lunch, drop off our laundry, run some errands and try to get some rest. When we are not fighting flus, chest coughs, stomach viruses and fevers, we take in some of the activities that Cape Town has to offer. We have tried to do one 'big thing' each off-shift. We have done a Vineyard tour, a township tour, visited Robben Island and most recently ascended Table Mountain.

I also posted some orphange pics, but they are not 'public', which means you need a flickr account and to be connected to me as a 'friend or family.' Sign up if you would like and I will add you as a contact when we get back from shift next week. We are back on shift (our last one! so sad!) until Tues, so I will check in with you then.
