Our weekend

Leslie and I just returned from Family conference. We had a great time at the game lodge and enjoyed spending time with some of the other MAF families and the ministry team from the states. We spent all day last thursday driving to the conference and today (monday) we drove back to Lesotho. We were able to view a variety of African wildlife such as Giraffe, Wildabeast, Blesbok, Baboon, Impala, Eland, Kudu, Zebra, Warthog and other wildlife.
There were some great photo ops, but that wasn't possible due to my broken camera. After Evi's accident I purchased a new digital camera. It worked great but about two weeks ago I noticed a dark spot on all the pictures due to dust on the lens. No big deal I thought and took it to a Sony service place in South Africa. They were not able to fix it but in the process broke the flash, and when I received the camera back from them it wouldn't even turn on anymore. So now I have an almost new camera that wont even turn on. The team from the states is taking it back with them to Texas, but from my conversations with Sony it doesn't sound like it will be fixed under warranty. Oh well, maybe it's time for another camera.
Anyways, that is the story as to why I don't have any amazing photos of African animals from our family conference.

Isn't that the most aggravating!? Does the SA shop take any responsibility? So sorry.
