2014 Annual Breaking of the Ice

Notice everyone is smiling. How long will this last?

 

This is how we do it every year: follow the leader.

 

 

                                                              First ones down!

 

 

 

                                                              Yay! He made it!

 

 

 

                       Right about here we're wondering why we let Jacob be the leader...

 

 

 

 

                                              Our cheering squad and future comrades!

 

 

 

 

 

 

                                                                    Run!!

 

                                       ...Oh wait she needs help. Go back!

 

 

 

                                                 Heading for safety...shore!

 

 

                                                 It's cold! It's cold! It's cold!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                                               All finished and still smiling!

 

                                           Hot chocolate and warm showers!

 

 



Pilanesberg South Africa

Started on the roof of the vehicle...then they told us we had to stay inside. Bummer. I guess they don't approve of feeding all the carnivorous beasts in the park.

 

 

BACON!!!!

Finding a snack in the back

 

Light Bulb Moment



Silas "Oooooh" Well...I guess the sooty, dirty water wasn't that bad



And a bath after getting all messy in the pot

And the best part of the whole trip - getting to spend time with two special people
