Walking in the woods

A few from the congo got together the other day and went for a walk in the bush. Seeing I miss walking up the mountains in Ecuador, I decided to go with them. Mark was busy working at the Assembly Hall so was not around to hold my hand - it was fortunate there was some very nice young bros to look after me - as you can see, even tying my shoe laces for me (quite possibly I was taking too much time trying to bend over)
Not sure who we think we are in this photo -

I was humbled having to be helped when the brother in the photo next to me managed to do it ok -and he's 85 years old!!!

Walking in the water with no shoes? Must be nice!
Looks like you all had a lot of fun, the river reminded me of the road in front of our apartment a few days ago :) I might as well have taken the shoes off, but it smelled a bit foust, you never really know what's in the water here do ya? :P
