There are many favourable attributes for living in sub sahara Africa and that being that the temperature all year round doesn't vary too much unlike our homelands. This means that Joshua and Zara enjoy the freedom of playing outside most of the time. 99.9% of the time this is a good thing until Zara came in the house to tell me that Joshua had found a great picnic place. This intrigued me no end so I went out to investigate. The pictures above will explain it more than I could ever with words. I remember doing the same thing as a child and wondered why my parents were a bit unnerved. Now I understand! Thankfully they are very sure footed but it still makes the mother in me come out in a cold sweat. :)
