Yesterday was a long day. We went to Akagera! The other four missionaries came over to my place Sunday night so we could leave by 6. It was about a 3 hour drive and then we drove around the park for about 7 hours. Then 3 hours back. I can't stand sitting that long. (Haha, that's kind of a funny sentence.) But it was really neat. Since it's the end of the dry season, everything was all yellow and dead, so it actually looked like what you would expect from Africa. We got to see a bunch of animals. The zebras were the best. They were standing right by the path we were driving on. We were hoping to see an elephant but it didn't happen. Probably for the best... I guess the last time some missionaries came to this park they were chased by an elephant. But we did get to see a lot of giraffes and cape buffalo and antelope and hippos and baboons.  It was great!
Sorry it's short today. Love ya all!
