Africa preparations...


These wonderful creatures are a part of my Africa preparation. Yup, 5 days from now I'll be flying through the sky towards Freetown. Time to start making some mental preparations and of course time to get a few odds and ends. (and maybe catch up on some blog posts) I love having toys in my office for the children to play with. So, that's always something I look for when I'm home. Of course, they need to be BLEACHABLE. I was walking through the market with my mom this afternoon and we couldn't help but notice some toys hanging from the stall. On second glance we noticed it was actually the pet stall. No problem. A toy is a toy right? Okay, so they're dog toys but I'm sure the kids will love them too...colorful, bright and most of all they are SQUEAKY! And we even got a discount telling the salesperson they were for a clinic in Africa. I love it!

Hey San, was great adding this memory to our list .... I will go back to the market stall and tell the sales person that the toys really went to the clinic in Africa - he was doubting - to many people tried to get a discount and lied to him ....
