South Africa - November 2011

  • Pilanesberg landscape
    In November 2011 we traveled to South Africa and brought Charles's parents along for the ride. We spent a week in and around Cape Town, a few days near Hartbeespoort and the Cradle of Humankind, a couple days at Pilanesberg National Park, and two days with my friend Stephanie and her family in Pretoria. It was a FANTASTIC trip! There are (currently) 78 photos in this album and don't include some of the great places we visited or people we saw. I may add more as we finish weeding through the approximately FOUR THOUSAND photos we took. Seriously. It was a great trip.

Lang zal ze leven!

Happy Birthday, Merrill! If you were here (or I were there), I would sing you the Dutch birthday song! As an inadequate substitution, I will copy and paste the words here and link you to the Laura Speaks Dutch site where you can learn it yourself and hear it sung! (Skip to around 4:20 for just the singing.)

Lang zal ze leven!
Lang zal ze leven!
Lang zal ze leven in de gloria!
In de gloria!
In de gloria!

CHEERING: Hieper de piep HOERA! (3X times or as many times as the age)

Ze leve hoog, ze leve hoog!
Ze leve hoog, ze leve hoog!
Ja, hoog!
Ze leven hoog!

Hieper de piep HOERA!

Me, too. I realized on the way into work this morning that I had the whole damn song stuck in my head. :)
