Holiday - Part 1

Laura and i will get to celebrate our 4th anniversary on August 13th! Well, when planning what we would do, we realized getting back into the country on July 31st, and both of us starting jobs right after that (especially Laura getting back into teaching), chances of us getting to do something nice would be very unlikely, so...

we decided to take the opportunity to do get away while we were in South Africa...

we took two days, rented a car, and went on a bit of a scenic journey to some parts of the beautiful country we were already in! the following two posts are going to mostly be picture updates to give you a visual experience of what we did and where we went, but i will try to point out some things when it seems needed...

we started by headed up to a place called God's Window, which is apparently the South African version of going somewhere like the Grand Canyon. on the way up we stopped at a place called Harrie's Pancakes, which are slightly different from American pancakes, but stil "oh so tasty!". from there we went on to God's window, then stopped at a couple waterfalls, the first, Berlin Falls, then Lisbon Falls.

we ended our day at a little bed and breakfast in a town near our destination for the next day... Kruger Park :)
