Well, after a month, I am finally getting sorted with my blog. Due to the problems the internet has nowadays I am having to write at an internet cafe on saturday mornings.
The first month has been nothing if not eventful. Having arrived in the middle of july, and that being the middle of winter here, I had envisaged cold weather, wind and rain but one month on and its only now we are having our first rain.
When I arrived the team were very happy to see me but work got started staight away. We have had two teams from an organisation called exodus in the UK. There was a team from Scotland and Northern Ireland. They helped decorate some houses. They were a real blessing and I got on so well with them. The last team (the Irish team) left last week but they left lots of happy memories with the kids.
My work has been hectic, trying to get all the promotional stuff together for Yvonne and Alfons's trip to Australia (they left on monday) And now I have a big list of things to do when they aren't here.
A big difference is now that I can drive. Its so good and so useful. Im really enjoying it, even the double overtaking from the taxis.
Socially, I played my first round of golf yesterday at Port Shepstone. I only played 9 holes but it was just nice to get out and get some exercise in the fresh air.
Please email me if you want. either at robert_the_hobbit87@hotmail.com or at rehoboth.info.org.za.
Thanks Guys.
God Bless

Finally Back
Hi Guys.
Sorry for the late post. Between busy work schedules and internet problems. I will write about my trip so far tomorrow evening but just wanted everyone to know I am safe if not 100% sound. I am enjoying it so much here. The weather is hot and it hasn't rained more than a few drops since I've been here. Thank you for all your support and prayers. I miss you guys.
Love and God Bless.
Rob
