#63 Go on an African Safari and #54 Hold Orphans in Africa {Life List Wednesday}

I know I have not done a Life List update the last 2 weeks since I was in Rwanda and then was trying to do all of the updates afterward. This week I figured I'd share 2.

#63 Go on an African Safari

This is a newer addition to the list, but never thought that I would get to do it so soon. This was one of those far away "one day" dreams. In Rwanda we got to go on an amazing safari. I think my favorite part was seeing the elephant because it is so rare to see them. Only about 1 in every 20 groups get to see one. This guy was about 70 years old.

#54 Hold Orphans in Africa

When I wrote this I did so thinking that it would happen in an orphanage on a missions trip. However, I got to not only hold small children who had lost one or more parents, we also got to meet with people who were around my age who lost parents when they were very young and have learned how to do life on their own. I'm glad that this one did not go exactly as I thought it would, because I would have missed out on hearing the stories of these individuals.
