10 - The Oakville Beaver Weekend, Saturday April 19, 2008 www.oakvillebeaver.com BEAVER TRAILS TO BOTSWANA: Joan and Denise were joined by Stephanie Spares, 27, (Denise's sister) in Chobe National Park, Botswana as Stephanie met up with them to take part in a Habitat for Humanity home build in Zambia. More travel on horizon Continued from page 9 places, but noticed Vietnam had no golden arches. They chuckle when they recall that they spent Easter Sunday touring a Buddhist temple -- where Denise managed to catch her clothes on fire with burning incense and then they ate dinner at Pizza Delight. Actually, the family is very travel oriented. Heather's boyfriend lives in Spain and she is a frequent visitor to that country. That's also where she studied archaeology and spent time on a dig. Dad, Sam, works with the Canadian National Railway (CNR) and hasn't trav- elled to far afield -- until now. Not long after speaking of their whirlwind, world tour, Denise, as team leader, and her dad were off to do a house build with Habitat for Humanity in New Zealand. Then they were to visit family in Australia. Joan was minding the fort at home with Heather, but training to become a Habitat for Humanity leader. "I've sort of converted the family into a Habitat group. My oldest sister was part of the build I did last year in Zambia, and that build was the end of my mom's and my romping around the world," said Denise.
