Boating

A couple weeks ago Josh's siblings all came into town to visit. We spent one of the days boating, jet skiing, and hanging out at Echo Reservoir. We all had a blast and were worn out by the end of the day.

Helicopter Ride

One of the people Josh met in Johannesburg owns a helicopter and he offered to take Josh for a ride over the city before he left. Josh took him up on his offer one of his last days in South Africa. The pictures from the helicopter didn't turn out the best, but Josh had a ton of fun.

Rugby Game

Rugby is huge in South Africa so Josh went to a few games while he was there. Sometimes the fans can get a little out of control - in the first picture you can see a moat behind Josh (they didn't fill it with water for this game) then a fence with spikes on top to keep the fans off the field.

Boerewors Rolls

On the way to the game reserve Josh and the guy he went with stopped at a little shack on the side of the road to pick up some boerewors rolls. A boerewors roll is like an African bratwurst with a tomato and onion sauce, barbecue sauce and butter in a baguette. Josh said it was delicious!

Game Reserve

While in South Africa Josh went to a game reserve a couple hours from where he was staying. For the most part they were able to drive around and take pictures of the free roaming animals.

These caged lions actually ate the owner last year. They would feed the lions every Sunday, and one Saturday the owner was driving through on a tractor and the lions tore him off and ate him!

Here are some white lions. I never knew they existed until Josh showed me these pictures.
