- The butterflies in my stomach the morning of meeting Sylvia for the first time.
- Esther's reaction to seeing all the "pretty brown people" everywhere.
- Roman's Pizza.
- Sunshine and clear skies all day, every day (or was that just a coincidence last time we were there?).
- The excitement building up to the World Cup.
- Hearing the cheering crowds when South Africa plays against Uruguay in the stadium next to where we're staying.
- The pretty views from the Union Buildings.
- Buying more mementos from SA at the stands with the nice Africans.
- Seeing our 2 South Africa friends again, Ann & Letsholo.
- Visiting Esther's orphanage again, and them seeing how big she has gotten.
- Meeting new adoptive families from Scandinavia/Holland who have also just become parents for the first, second or third time.
- Hearing, "What a cutie!" about 4,953 times a day, in reference to our girlios.
- Having Niklas around more often!
Things I'm NOT looking forward to about South Africa:
- Aggressive guard dogs that bark viciously at you every time you walk by a house.
- The obnoxious honking of the white van taxis.
- Not having anything to do during the middle week, which last time went by REALLY slowly.

åh, va det låter härligt Katie,(blir så avundsjuk men inte missundsam för det!) önskar er så mycket lycka med allt men framförallt med lillasyster!
Gott också att "se fram emot-listan" var mycke längre än den andra listan!
Varma hälsningar från Anki i Höganäs
Gratulera med den flotte jenta. Og for ein flott overraskelse! Rekna med pulsen var høg når de skjønte hva adopsjonbyrået ønskte!
Tenkte på midt uka deres. Hva med å reise bort fra fotball miljøet, oppleve meir av det flotte landet. Finst sikkert noen plasser som ikke koster så mye selv om det er VM.
God tur
Helsing
Mammaen til ein flott gutt frå Cape Town
