In 2006, we spent 6 months in Moshi, Tanzania. While we are back in the States now, our hearts were forever changed. As we are in the ongoing process of learning what it means to live by faith, we strive to reflect God's love, sacrifice, generosity and forgiveness to a broken world.

Ngorogoro...the legend lives on...

Day 2 of our adventure...Ngorogoro Crater...a place that lives in infamy. Way different than we expected (pretty much a plain in the middle of the crater...for whatever reason we expected more of a lush forest), but amazing altogether. Where else can you have lion's an arm's length away (or 2 lion's on 'honeymoon' - that's what they call the 1 week mating period during which a male & female don't eat, drink or do anything except for 'make pleasures' over and over again - as seen in this picture), stained with blood from their latest kill? Or see a Rhino in the wild (only 7 remain in the crater, not sure how many left on earth)? Or see over 50 Hippos in one pool together, crawling over one another, splashing water on themselves & rolling in the water to keep cool? Or see 5 Zebra feeding simultaneously?
Or in general see over 1,000 Zebra,
Wildebeest
and Gazelle at the same time?
Ngorogoro...one of the most exquisite pieces of the Artist's hand...
