Celebrating milestones

Just in case you noticed that there has not been a post for awhile….we have been on vacation, and then recovering from a terrible cold that hit us after the long travel. So, now we are able to reminisce and be grateful for the days that we had away, exploring new places and savoring some time to catch up with family. But the main reason for this special vacation was the fiftieth wedding anniversary of Bob’s parents. Definitely a milestone worth celebrating. So, please indulge us as we share a few pictures of the beauty that we found in Spain.

Some pictures from the Alhambra, where we were amazed by the architecture, the intricate, detailed designs, and the history and stories from several centuries ago.

Most of the time we relaxed together in Marbella, playing games, eating lots of good food, enjoying the pool and the view of the Mediterranean, and doing a little exploring of the area. And taking every opportunity to get ice cream, of course!

And then, of course, we enjoyed some time of marking the milestone of our parents’ anniversary, followed by our anniversary (although we are many years behind them!)

Now back to work in Juba, with happy memories to look back on.
