South Africa: One Last Adventure

We decided on one last weekend adventure, before leaving South Africa.  We have two more weekends left, and will most likely spend those say good bye to family, and getting some last minute things to take home.

We have a had so much fun, and the kids have had many unique experiences, and it's been a blast sharing some of my childhood experiences with them.

The time with my parents have to been so precious as well, and seeing the kids embrace them, and spend time with them have been such a huge joy.

Our last little adventure was two fold - a stop at the Union Buildings (it is the equivalent of the Capital Hill) for a few quick pictures.

   The second pary - Lory Park.  I am so happy we went, and I would highly recommend them to anyone with young children.  It is a beautiful little park, with a variety of animals, and lots of learning opportunities.

  My absolute favourite part - the serval cats.  It was so amazing to interact with these beautiful cats - Ian got play with them, and he loved it!  The lady was so sweet, patient, and informative.  This one will go to the books.

  I so loved this experience - this was a new one for all of us.

There is sweet little variety of animals, with animal and conservation status information.

this bird, talked to them ;)

    We had a fun little lunch in the shade of some massive trees.  Always a treat.

  Bunny and guinea pig feeding was in order. This made one little lady very very happy!

  It was just such a nice and warm day out - can I just say that I am not excited to go home to winter.

It was such a lovely atmosphere, and the kids had so much fun.

i just love this wall so much.

  and there was snake touching - they weren't to keen on holding the snake around their necks, maybe one day!

 We had so much fun.

We thrive on adventure and doing stuff, and that has been the hardest part of living where we live - there truly is nothing - and I kind of don't like it.

So for now we are loving the time home, the sunshine, the lack of drama, and the time with my parents.

In a couple of short weeks we will be back on plane, heading home, to another change.

But for now, we embrace all these sweet moments together.

Happy Wednesday!
