Dear Rebecca,
Thank you so much for letting me be a part of the Flat Stanley project. The first thing I did with Flat Stanley (FS) was vote. FS told me how important he thought it was to get out the vote so on election day we waited two hours in line at Inman Middle School in Atlanta, GA. Pictures are not allowed in the voting area, but a nice poll worker allow us to take the one attached. Even though FS thought vote was quite an adventure, he had no idea what was coming next. On November 18th, FS boarded a plane with me and my husband (Bill) to South Africa. Luckily, being flat, he didn't have to worry about passport control! First, we visited Cape Town where FS took a motorcycle ride around the penninsula to the Cape of Good Hope. Then we went to a cheetah reserve where FS got to meet the cats up close and personal. Next it was off to Robben Island where FS saw the prison that Nelson Mandela was held in for being a political activist during the Aparthied era. FS came with us on safari as well, but it was too difficult to try to take pictures of him there. If your interested in hearing about our entire adventure, you can visit our blog at bagwill.blogspot.com. Thanks again for the opportunity to take part in the Flat Stanley learning experience. Best,Nancy
