Emma is into her third week of volunteering as a human rights lawyer in Botswana. This is a picture of the faux African hut where she’s living. It has air conditioning, a TV and a fridge which I think is hilarious. I don’t think she ever imagined that roughing it would involve central air, although it is over 90 degrees every day.Emma celebrated her birthday this weekend by going on a safari to the Okavango Delta with two of her friends. She saw hippos, impalas, cheetahs, lions, elephants and giraffes. At one point she was just a few feet away from two lions eating a baby impala. “If that doesn’t make you a vegetarian nothing will, Mom,” she told me when I talked to her today. Nevertheless, Emma said it was the most exciting weekend of her life. So in honor of Emma’s birthday and the great continent of Africa, here’s a mini collage sheet of mainly African wildlife to download.

Spending time as a voluteer in Africa must be a wonderful, unforgettable experience.
Thank you for the wonderful collage.
What a cute little hut, I'd love one just like it in my backyard! It amuses me that it has air conditioning.
Thanks! That's great!
Happy Birthday Emma! What a wonderful thing to do. Like no other, what a woman! Thank you for being so generous of spirit. Travel safely.
There is no love in the world like a mother's love that sees the highest vision for her child. What an amazing education Emma is getting and giving to you. I LOVE the collage, especially the lion and the elephant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy Week!
I would love to stay in a hut like that, and I would be terribly thankful for the a/c!! What a wonderful, memorable way to spend a birthday!
