Day 7...Last Post :(

Sad to announce that this is going to be the last post of the trip.  We have a busy day tomorrow and won't be able to blog until we get back home.  So here it goes...

We had a great day today.  This morning we went on a tour of Robben Island, which is for those of you who don't know a government prison for Political leaders to be imprisoned who commit a crime.  We had a great tour and got a great look at the cell where Nelson Mandela spent 20 years of his life.  It was an interesting experience.  After this we headed to a market around the area and did a lot of shopping and gift buying and such, so prepare yourself for some prizes from your children.  The afternoon was quite rainy, but of course this group powered through and had a great afternoon.  Tonight we had a great dinner at a local hot spot called Mama Africa.  We got to experience some traditional type African meals and things.  It was a fun night and a great one to end our last full day on.

Tomorrow we are going to 2 different churches and of course we are very excited about that.  Tomorrow we are also going to visit the penguins, which will be awesome!!!

It is sad to think that this is our last full night together as a group, but I couldn't be more proud and inspired by this group.  It has truly been a trip of a lifetime and I couldn't be happier of this group of seniors and the work that they did.  Here are some pictures of today and other things to close out the blog on this trip.  See you in a couple days!!!
