LADIES RETREAT
LAZY LAGOON ISLAND.

We had a great weekend with a few of the Ladies on our team. We got back from Mombasa Friday and left Saturday to Lazy Lagoon Island until Monday. I unpacked, repacked shopped and started the laundry Friday evening. I felt bad for having to leave Nick for the weekend but he handled it all really well. The kids had a great time with their daddy. I don't know how I scored him, but I do have a Gem of a husband! Well, 8 of us ladies drove up to Bagamoyo and went by a little boat to an island, which took maybe,15 mins from the main land. We had meetings, took walks, played games and had time to enjoy the beauty of the East coast. Overall, a fun time.
Linda McClafflin and Danna Beggs came to share with us, and their theme was ((( BUBBLES ))). It was really neat. What light are you reflecting to make the color of your bubble? What makes them pop? Do you know the kind of soap that you are? The analogy was great. Just a neat weekend so I thought I would share it.


We took the little boat (left) to the medium one (right).
Although Majority waded in their clothes to the boat, I waited for the little.
I was expecting more of a dhow with shade but it didnt take long.

I had a different room each night. #8 and #1.

Linda and Danna sharing memories of earlier days.
It was neat to hear their stories. Put things in perspective.
Life isnt so bad these days! :)
