And they're off!

Arnold, Gretchen and Baby Adele

Our friends, the Changamires, left today for a month long visit to Africa. Arnold is from Zimbabwe and hasn't been home since getting married and coming to the United States a few years ago. This trip is much needed for him and very special being that Miss Adele will be meeting grandmas and loved ones for the very first time. Along with visiting they will be attending a few World Cup games as well. Even though I'm not a soccer buff and the mosquito-like noise is a bit much for me, I'll be watching the games to get a glimpse of what they are experiencing. We definitely will miss seeing them for the first part of the summer, but are extremely excited for their adventure and hope to vicariously travel with them through their blog and facebook updates.
To read about how a girl from Wisconsin meets a boy from Africa and then gets married in Zimbabwe check out Gretchen's post Full Circle on her blog.
If you're curious (like me) and want to know more about their month-long transcontinental adventure check out Arnold's blog: Anderson's World Cup.
