DAY 74

Back to school yesterday! It felt like returning from a holiday, but in a good way. I had missed my daily routine and the steady (but unpredictable) movement of the day. One thing I had missed most was the morning bus route and waking up to a bunch of happy kids! Yesterday we ran into […]

DAY 73

Yesterday was supposed to be a lazy day. Instead it was spent in Tarangire. I had gone to bed late the night prior (I guess you could say in the early hours of yesterday) a little past midnight. I was expecting to sleep in, but I woken up at 6:00 with the news we would

DAY 72

Time is flying! As of yesterday I’ve crossed into only 3 weeks left. I’m a bit nervous to leave and start something new—I’ve become very comfortable here in Arusha. Yesterday I slept in for a while. I was very tired the night before, so it was much needed and thankfully there wasn’t any school! Friday

DAY 71

Yesterday was a quick day. We woke up and hit the road. The guests who had been my accompaniment were finishing their trip off, and flew back to Arusha from Serengeti early in the morning. We had to drive them to the airport before we could head out—it was around 9:00 a.m. before we could

Day 70

Yesterday I was lucky enough to go on a true game safari. Wake up was at 5:00 and boy was it worth it. We hurried to leave the camp around 5:45; a brief breakfast at 5:30 and then on the road. I was in a car with my pals Stan, Jan and Mo, some folks

Day 69

I could call yesterday the opposite of the day prior, but I was still I Serengeti, so that wouldn’t be appropriate. There isn’t much for me to say about yesterday. I stayed in the camp all day relaxing. It’s not exactly a resort; the purpose is to eat meals and sleep at, not entertain throughout

DAY 68

Wowza. There is so much to say about yesterday. Long and beautiful! I’ll let the pictures tell the story. My day started at 5:15 after getting less than 5 hours of sleep. Our journey for Serengeti was set to start at 5:30—we left around 6:00. I t took around two and a half hours to

DAY 67

No funny business, just another day. Yesterday was mellow. I was in a good mood the minute I woke up. The weather seemed like it was going to be nice throughout the day and I was excited to be avoiding the rain. Yesterday morning I saw something that gave me a reality check. I’ve been

DAY 66

Yesterday was fairly boring. I spent a lot of time on my computer doing some research about what prospects seem interesting for my return home. There wasn’t much other than that. I got an extra hour of sleep; my alarm granted me until 7am. Nobody got up in the main house until nearly 9, so

DAY 65

I had a lazy morning yesterday. On Saturday’s I don’t go with the school bus route; it leaves at 6:00 in the morning and I’m not up for that just yet. Normally Abby and I leave for school around 6:30, leaving at 7:50 was a nice change for once. At school I had a messy
