An article about me on Oasis Global website :)

I was not expecting to find it there!! I didn't know that someone was writing about the trip to South Africa thus it was a pleasant surprise ;-)

By the way, the title accurately represents my true feelings :-)

Bake Sale Success!!!

What a blessing to have great friends and sweet tooth colleagues! :-)

A special Thank You to Anna, my wonderful colleague and friend, Amy, my lovely housemate, who baked delicious cupcakes and Debbie, my colleague from Oasis, who offered her services as a baker! Thank you to everybody, who has supported the idea by purchasing the lovely cakes!

We raised £130 in total!!! 30% more than planned!!!


“He opened the rock, and the water gushed out; it flowed like a river in the desert” Psalm 105:41

I feel this verse fits here perfectly... People as a community, as this tight circle of wholeness, helped me to make my dream/prophesy come true.
We had enough money to pay for fuel, to get tasty snacks, to buy a lovely photo frame and develop a few pictures for Elna and Charl Theron, who generously gave their time for us. The Thaba Lodge that we visited is a private safari park and not available for public, thus we feel very blessed to have had this exclusive opportunity to thoroughly enjoy South Africa’s wild life!
We saw elegant giraffes, fast kudus, Impalas and friendly Nialas, also springbok and massive, slightly scary looking blue wildebeests. Stripy zebras looked chilled in the bush minding their own business. The biggest surprise and amazement was to see two rhinos 15 meters away from our safari van! People were wonderfully amused!  
Absolutely brilliant day!

Thank You all for making this happen!!!!
