My Trip to Cape Town

A few months ago, I spent 9 days in Cape Town, South Africa visiting my friend and former roommate Derrick Lovick. He and his wife Rashidah were spending a year there working with student leaders of Christian fellowship groups at two different universities.

We toured the wine country, had some traditional meals, saw one of the several shanty towns outside Cape Town, hiked Table Mountain with a group of students, and visited Robben Island, home to the former maximum security prison used during the Apartheid era for political prisoners, including Nelson Mandela.

Irish Festival pictures

The Lord Family visited the Massachusetts Irish Festival in June and had a great time. Lots of step dancing, diverse music, face painting, and big bubble machine, and even a rugby match made it a fun day. Click on the photo below to see all my pictures.
