Below are some recent pictures of our trip to Kruger last weekend. I showed Elio the picture of his passport and he told me, "Elio was sad that day. He didn't like people taking his picture." Poor Elio... he does look pretty glum.

It's still hotter than Hades here, but I'm getting used to dripping in sweat by 7AM. Funny how adaptable we are as human beings... today a pick-up truck full of policemen toting AK47s passed me on my way to work. Here, there are two types of policeman. Fat ones in white uniforms called Policia Transito-- Traffic Police. They are fat because they take bribes from all the
chapas (minibuses). Then, there are what Mozambicans call
Cinzentinhos, or little gray guys. They are all skinny young guys and they are the ones who get to hold the AK47s. Twenty years ago, I would have beem scared by all these machine guns, but now I hardly notice. Yes, we are adapable...
