Lions, Tigers & PIGS? Oh my!

Most of you have probably seen the video that my hilarious husband posted on facebook a few weeks ago. Those reading this who know me very well, probably got a kick out of watching it. I will have to admit that it was pretty funny...

So about two weeks ago we traveled to Eastern Province and visited 19 villages where we drilled boreholes earlier this year. We are starting a project to help us map out the areas where we are working - plotting boreholes, mapping villages, gathering WASHE data etc. You can follow us @ findpenguins.com/water282.

During our week long trip, we received a few more special gifts. For those of you who didn't see the video - here you go. Enjoy!

What you can't see in this video is that we were also given three chickens, a guinea fowl, two 50kg bags of maize, and a 50kg bag of ground nuts. Needless to say, the back of our vehicle was loaded down. The pig had both his front and hind legs tied together and his snout was tied shut. About 10 minutes into our journey back to town, a funny smell took over the car. The pig had gone to the bathroom, which Jacob and Rev. Mbewe had to clean up. I like to call this "payback". Haha! So they get it all cleaned up and we continue on the 1-2 hr trip back to town. When we arrive back at Rev. Mbewe's home, we discover that the pig had gotten out of his restraints and killed two of our chickens. This day was certainly one for the books!

Love,

Libby

Also, get in the habit of commenting on my blog so that I know you are actually reading it. In fact, if you read this post, just go down to the bottom and leave me a little "I love you". And write a comment for the first five or so posts so it feels like everyone is engaged. After that, you only have to comment on the ones that speak more to you. Thanks!!
