Not a bad ride. At one point it started just pouring rain. Buckets and buckets for about 20 minutes, and we were drenched. We got to their place at around 10 and Bridget walked met us at Choppies (grocery store). We then walked the maze route to their house. Once we got there we were welcomed with nice warm baths. Very nice. Afterwards we (matt, bridgett and kelly) walked to Dijo Deli for some awesome milk shakes.

We next went on the delta for a boat ride. Very relaxing, but short. Saw some really cool birds that we hadnt seen before.

Polished the night off with some braii and just sat outside and relaxed.

Erik, kelly, Matthews, Bridget and Matt!

Just chilled. It was matts b-day so Bridgett cooked up some cake for everyone. In the morning we joined matt at the clinic to see what goes on there. It was very interesting. He works with the baby weighing project. Every month moms bring their babies in to get wieghed and make sure they are healthy. At the same time they get a ration of baby food and oil for cooking. An interesting program, seems semi effective from what matt was telling us. Just like most things, a little more follow up would help out a lot.
