Strange Tree [00:45]
My husband and I were driving to Port Elizabeth from Johannesburg in December 2010, when we drove by a strange looking tree in a small town. We just had to get out of the car to take a look at it. From the bottom it looks like a succulent - but do succulents grow that tall? If someone knows what type of tree that is, please let us know! Today we learned that it is an alien tree from Brazil. Those branches at the top are its children. It will fall over and the kids will form new trees. In South Africa it is considered a threat. Still amazing to see though!

FIRST TRIP OF THE SEASON 2011-12 [11:16]
It's great to have customers who don't mind the weather! Leah and Tyron Knott decided to brave the Vaal rapids on a cold spring day - opening our new summer season for us. The sunlight sparkled and a chilly wind blew, but within an hour the day had warmed up. The Vaal co-operated with exciting rapids (small at this time of year but still steep and fast). Lots of leguaans populated the banks, soaking up the sun, and the occasional kingfisher was to be seen trying its luck at dipping and diving. Tom Lackenby, a kayaker from England, pronounced the Vaal to be awesome, while Leah and Tyron wrote to say it was a spectacular weekend. Not too shabby for the first-off trip! Karen led the trip and Shadrach supported her, with Graeme out of action due to the flu. Also on the trip were our learner guides Sidwell, Arno and Fly: the latter pair just back from the Orange River guide expedition. - Graeme 0842452490. yeeha

South Africa 2011 [05:56]
A team of college students went to Pretoria, South Africa on Summer Project with Campus Crusade for Christ (Cru). They tutored for three weeks in the Mamelodi township the topics of math, science, English, and technology. These students learned about the diversity of culture, how fun translates readily in any language, and the depth of God's love for themselves and for everyone with whom they interact.
