Some places still celebrate Easter. You know, the stores are closed on Good Friday, people go to church and it's not all about bunnies, baskets and egg hunts. Well, I wish I could say that the people of Okahandja understand and honor the true meaning of Easter, but I can't. However, the stores are closed and the whole town takes a long vacation from Good Friday to "Easter Monday," which is a public holiday. I am happy to report that the Duran's took some rest time as well. Clinton and Simon joined us on a family day outing to Swakopmund. Ah... yes... sitting on the beach (bundled with sweatshirt and towels), enjoying the gentle splashing of the sea! Heavenly! If you're wondering if the water is cold, you'll have to ask the boys. It was a first for Simon. He had never been in the sea before, so it was fun watching them catching waves. Clinton experienced his first go-kart racing. We laughed, played and got a little caught up in the competition, but all-in-all had a relaxing day in the sun, with the smile of the Son upon us. So nice!
