from the North to the South

Thursday, July 9, 2015

We just got back from a 2800km roadtrip! And we have only 11 days left to pack up before we leave for Tanzania!

We are thankful for some great family time with both sides of our family. We spent a few days at our annual Otter Lake holiday with Andre's family and then continued on from there to spend a few days with Alex's family in the Fort St John area. It was good times spent with family -- we are grateful for the opportunity, sad about saying goodbyes, and thankful for safe travels.

Now it's time for some intense packing action as the countdown is on! Only 11 days to go! We have a lot of packing, sorting, and cleaning to do, figuring out what's suitcase worthy, what's worth storing for 5 years, and what to get rid of.

It's also a season of goodbyes as we see people for the last time before our departure date. If you're in our area, we do have 2 farewell parties coming up to say goodbye: July 17 bbq at the Pauls' place, and July 19 missions bbq after church (send us a message for details).

We fly out of Vancouver on July 21 and hope to arrive in our new home in Iringa on July 24!
