Where In The World Is Haley Going To Be?

My husband is a brilliant man when it comes to many things, but he's always been the first to admit that geography is not his thing. When he started asking Haley some really bizarre questions last night about where she will be, she started out by chuckling at his lack of knowledge but then gave me this look of "Mom, we really need to help Dad figure this stuff out!" We started by pulling out a Bible and finding a map of the world in the back.



Next we pulled a book that is full of maps from the shelf and even ended up with the vintage globe that was given to our family by his Grandma Nellie.



It's a little hard to see on this picture of the globe, but Haley will be spending her first month in South Africa, which is the southernmost country in Africa, and then her second month she will be in Zambia, which is a little bit north of South Africa. Have a little fun and pull out your own assortment of maps and see what you can learn about the location of these countries! They are definitely a long ways from home!
