After visiting with the Phiri family, we stopped in at the 40/40 farm to eat lunch. We visited a little with the Sprayberry's and the Keeton's who were setting up for the training. After this we headed on to Chipata.
From Chipata it is 120km to South Luangwa, however, it is mostly dirt road, so it took about 3 hours to go that short distance. Along the way we see many children waving at the "white" people. We passed several small villages and some of the churches that were started by our mission several years ago in this area. 
It was a beautiful drive seeing all the mountains and valleys around us. Once we got to the top of the mountain, we could look out over the Luangwa valley seeing the river as well. It was a very BUMPY trip, we called ourselves the "Bobblehead Family" since our heads were bobbing everywhere. The kids didn't even sleep on the way, partly because of the roads. Imagine all 3 kids in the backseat bouncing all over each other.
