Getting Carried Up Stairs

I still need to post about Shembe, including pictures, but I wanted to include these photos of two of my closest friends on the trip, Holly and Vaughn. The first picture shows Holly carrying me up stairs, which she does when my leg is really hurting or it's the third flight of stairs. I am continuously amazed at this, at how much she helps me. The second picture shows me with Holly (in the middle) and Vaughn, all decked out for Holly's 29th birthday last week. We went to the Golden Horse, a local casino/restaurant, and watched the final World Cup match.
