Meaning is there rain today? Not a chance but it is on the way and building up to serious monsoon within the next 3 weeks - kinda lookin forward to it; although I've witnessed it takes approx 10 minutes to dry a towel here in full sun (albeit if it starts off dark pink it soons turns light pink) but I am warned that once Monsoon starts it takes 2 day's in to dry a pair of cotton briefs as the atmosphere is so wet ...

... taking a photo of what they make to a tour rep i met at a hotel to see is they can bring tourists there, my dress has cost me 5 english pounds and is made to measure!!!! i know the tourists would love to see a progressive project plus have something really lovely to bring home, Unice was nearly in tears as she coud not believe how we might help her business to the next level. Addy is making a brouchure, and will set a page up on the internet ...

... took apart my binoculars (which I put back together, don't worry mom!). At first I thought nothing was missing. I looked over our balcony onto the forest floor and there to my surprise was my wallet.. .with lots of little chew holes in it. I was so lucky that they had dropped it somewhere I could see. We promptly put all of our valuables in a safe at reception (or should I call it a not so safe). We later came back to the safe to find that $100 had been stolen.... Not ...

... bunch of mistakes such as I did the time conversion wrong and Michael is 23 not 22 BUT I assume you the temperature estimate is correct. Today is Monday, February 2nd at 9:24am and IT'S RAINING! I have been waking up praying for rain the last few days and finally it came true! It's so great to have a reprieve from the sun. After spending Friday at the beach and all of us burning and then carrying an umbrella around yesterday to hide myself ...

... up his life, yet. We sailed through both the Tanzanian and Kenyan border posts at Lunga Lunga. The Arab had a name. While completing our departure and arrival cards, I peeked over and sneakily copied down the Arabs' name: Mohammedali Hassenali Merali. He was a Kenyan citizen. He overheard me almost rip-off a money changer (I owed them for their previous screwing-me-over) by confusing them with Rand/Zambian Kwacha/Tanzanian Schillings and then ...

... Sadiki from Zanzibar. Jenna tried to hide away, but I was interested to find out what had really happened on Zanzibar with Suleiman. He ran after us and I told him we were staying on Kigamboni Island. That night he found us, out of a dozen different places we could have been staying at! He was still trying to get laid, begging for cigarettes and hoping to get us to come with him to the other Rastafarians. I had a dip in the sea to cool off, but instead got ...

... large cleaver in my 16kg backpack had set alarm bells ringing. He became quite huffy when, after explaining I couldn't take the knife with me on the plane (No?), I explained that that was my check-in baggage and I never intended to try to smuggle a lethal weapon onto the flight, asking "Well, how could I know that. I just saw a knife." You could have asked. We arrived for our stay in Kruger National Park on the appointed day. According to their booking system we were a ...
