Welcome to Cape Town, Rachel!

Rachel arrived on Monday, December 10, for a summer visit! She moved to Uganda this past March and has been teaching at a primary school in the small village of Fort Portal, so it's also her summer break. We are VERY excited to be together for Christmas and to hear about her life this year. Praise God that her travels from Fort Portal to Entebbe to Johannesburg to Cape Town all went smoothly. This entry is the first of several installments on her visit!

On her first day here, I (Jul) took her to a couple of Cape Town sights, including up to the John Cecil Rhodes Memorial - with a good view of the surrounding area - and to the Gardens in the 'city bowl'. The sky was pretty clear today, too, so we got a good view of Table Mountain.
