The Africa Mercy, In Africa

(all images: mercyships.org)

I have to admit there were times i didn't think it would ever come true.

By the way, it actually is a ship. You may have mistakenly thought for some reason that it was a rather ugly building washed out into the harbor by mistake, but whatever they were doing to it in that shipyard for eight years, apparently it floats and even sails under its own power. Fascinating.

These photos were shamelessly stolen from mercyships.org. Of course, they shamelessly stole their video from Tyrone, who shot it for his new Africa Mercy site. Great 'soundtrack,' too. Spontaneous, joy-filled, and altogether more real than anything Disney or Sir Elton will ever compose. Click and enjoy!
