January 6 departure!

Our New Years event was a hit and it's time to prepare for Lesotho. We leave on Sunday, a mere 95 hours from now. We've scored Maple Leaf airport lounge passes from our dear friends Carl and Jen, so the nine hour layover in London will be not only tolerable, but downright enjoyable. Who doesn't like leather couches and free snacks?

Higgins Brothers have generously donated juggling gear again this year and we're taking materials to repair the stilts, should they need it. And we'll sew hats like crazy between now and Sunday so the clowns will truly shine!

We have some errands to run too - we need first aid stuff, water bottles, books and a new backpack. Oh, and we need to book a rental car. We're flying right into Lesotho this year rather than Jo-burg, so our drive to Hlotse will be much shorter. I hope Me-Blandina (our landlady) will be as happy to see us as we will be to see her again!

Please tune in to our adventures, as I hope to post while we're there...
