"No Vacancies"

Yet again our guest room is occupied with another guest. Joshua and Zara are loving all the attention they get from our numerous guests.

On Saturday a MAF Rep team arrived to get a glimpse for themselves of what MAF actually does. MAF Reps doing a lot of great things in the UK. They schedule meetings and speaking engagements throughout a given area to promote MAF and to share about the difference that MAF makes around the world in the various countries.

They have a fairly full schedule this week as they go on flights, meet with MAF folks, customers and also head out with Sam from Jesus Film Ministries to see the work that he does.

The Rep that is staying with us, Martin Rodgers is a fellow Scot from a place called Drumnadrochit (what a cool name!!). You probably have no idea where it is but if I told you it lies beside the banks of Loch Ness you might have a fair idea of the location. He kindly brought some presents with him. Zara got a cuddly toy of the highland cow variety and Joshua got a book on the Loch Ness Monster. The past two nights we have had to reread the story. He is quite taken by it all and can't believe that Martin stays close to where the monster is supposed to live. I think Loch Ness might be one of the destinations we will need to take Joshua too when we next make a visit to Scotland. We could call it our "Scottish" Safari.... in the hunt for the monster. This would make a change from our African Safari's :)

I'd love to see a photo of Joshua with 'Nessie'!
Please include a photo of Zara with her highland coo sometime. I haven't seen one of them in ages. :-)
Joshua and Zara, Ellie says thank you very much for the elephant! It arrived on Saturday and will remind her of you guys whenever she sees it!
