Spring Break is over and we actually can’t wait to go back to school. We miss all the kids so much!

Although getting to Mozambique was a little stressful (the trip took about thirteen hours and we had to run across the border), we had a lot of fun. We explored Maputo and also spent time in a small town called Bilene. The beaches were beautiful and the food was amazing.

One night, we suspected that we had some mice friends in the room with us. Emma, at about 4 am, used her phone as a flashlight and tried to find them. She then, forgetting there was a malaria net around the bed, was not very graceful and almost bounced into Christina’s bed. Christina bursts out laughing every time she pictures this. Emma does not.

Despite the animal presence, we enjoyed our time in Bilene and even had an entire beach to ourselves after making a long trek through the sand uphill both ways—but actually. It was great to see another African country, but it feels great to be back home in South Africa!
