Clinic in Talek

Thursday morning we had an optional game drive before clinic. Our first drive out we saw a bunch of lions, tons of elephants and lots of grazers! It was great fun seeing the excitement of the group seeing all the animals in the wild for the first time.

We headed back for breakfast (coffee cake and scrambled eggs) and then we loaded up for clinic in Talek. The academy kids stayed in camp and packed up their things cause they were heading to Siana to spend the night and do some construction at the MDP building site.

After I got the adults all settled in at clinic in Talek, I headed back to load up the academy kids. We got to the site about 11:30am and the kids piled out and went right to work, some shoveling sand, some pouring cement and some smoothing out the cement. The spend the night out on the ground under the stars on mattresses.

Back at clinic the adults were working hard - I got back to them just as they closed up clinic and we loaded them up, took them back to camp to freshen up and head out on a optional game drive. A couple of them came with me up to check on the burned baby that had had surgery on his foot this past Christmas. He was doing great!

Back at camp we loaded everyone up and headed out for another game drive - saw three cheetahs and some more lions, besides lots of other creatures. It was a great day - and once again we sat around the fire for worship and then headed to bed.

God had blessed us once again -
