... to include; crocodile, kudu, springbok, ostrich, and oryx. Visiting Cape Town and driving down the beautiful coast line with blue waters and mountains on either side of you. And lastly, the wonderful people who I encountered. The African people all over the continent and especially everyone in my group. It wouldn’t been nearly as much fun without them.

Each activity was so amazingly incredible and made me want to travel for infinity. Given ...

... came the glasses! First up was champagne
(Bit early for booze) but we were shown how to correctly taste the sample and after trying it given the opportunity to obviously drink it or use the spitoon. I decided that Sonja should have my share as wine just gives me a headache. This seemed like a perfect arrangement and came into it's own when we started sampling the reds,which is Sonja's favourite! Next up was Rose champagne ...

... to see the looks on their faces as I pulled each trinket or goody out of my bag. I wish I could have recorded the whole thing for you, Bob and Marti.
We had many great conversations about the country, I heard their story, they heard mine, the kids told me funny accounts of their adventures in Africa, and I watched some videos of a few of them! After dinner, we played a couple of rounds of Uno, and then it was already time for me to go. But ...

... boys from that larger group caught up with us and hiked with us to the 5th pool. they were from south africa and probably 13 yrs old? we kept offering for them to pass us but i think they wanted to stick with us because kent was leading and taking care of finding/staying on the right paths...otherwise it could have been confusing for them? i dunno. maybe they just liked listining to our american accents. we got to the 5th pool at the top of the canyon (very hard climb ...

I feel like I haven't written in months. Currently I am in the only Internet cafe in the black township of Langa outside of Cape Town South Africa. We spent a few days in the heat of the city in a hostel right when we arrived, then last Sunday we moved into our homestays in Langa. ZuXin is my roommate again. Our family consists of our mother, father, sister and a variety of other family members, most of whom im still not sure if ...

... other remarkable sights: the AIDS remembrance garden, the many walkways that take you in different directions to explore this great garden and its wonders - a true sight to behold. As you wander down Government Lane, the centre walkway of the Company Gardens, experience history unfold in front of you from the early 1600's until modern times, as you walk into the past and then into the present. Visit St Georges Cathedral This Cathedral has played host ...

... need to reduce flapping items. My favorite trick was to just rinse my tea cup and bring it in the tent with me since I'd just use it in the morning for tea again. Ahhh those flapping days. Flapping daze is more like it. Glad to be in one place for a few days. Cape Town is often said to be the most beautiful city in the world - or at least among them. In truth it is a very attractive city. Table mountain is the backdrop to the city. It is a very distinguishable landmark, rocky ...

... and mass export in computer programming, but alas, the infrastructure has not caught up with the people. SO.....the photos will unfortunately have to wait until we can post them from London, which is where we'll be in a few days time. So for now, back to the literary version of our safari experience. First game drive was the morning after we arrived. 5:30 came mighty early, but we hauled ourselves out of bed and lit the lanterns, threw on ...

... he got on, so I didn't get much more from him than that, but he was friendly. We'd asked him to take a picture for us, and we just started chatting. I'm still amazed by how willing people are everywhere I've gone to talk. On the subway in New York, you don't strike up a conversation with the person next to you. On the El or the Metra in Chicago, you keep to yourself. At least most people do. Maybe it's just because I'm normally closed off when I'm ...
