J-Bay

Jeffrey’s Bay, a small tourist town well known for its huge surfing attractions (aka the ocean), was incredibly fun for the three days we spent there. It was a time for us to relax and enjoy the nice hot weather. We were also given the opportunities to participate in either horseback riding along a gorgeous beach, sandboarding among the sand dunes and surfing lessons. I ended up doing all three options and they were all equally fun and challenging in different ways. I’ve got the bumps and bruises to show for the effort I put into it:)


Even in this short time meant for relaxing we’ve found something to do that honors God. There is a volunteer, Bev, where we were staying who cooked all our meals, organized our activities and drove us to where we needed to be. She worked 7 days a week volunteering. While she was buying groceries for us her wallet was stolen and she desperately needed car repairs done. By the end of our stay we had managed to raise the money she needed and more! It was a fantastic time for all of us and we really enjoyed it!
