Hello yet again -- all this access to internet is beginning to be quite a luxury.
Hope everyone is enjoying seeing some pictures up. The Colobus monkeys were incredible in person, and I hope everyone approves of my wife-to-be. :)
Today is our last day in Stone Town, and our last day of internet, convenience, bars, tourists, and hecklers, etc. until we arrive in Arusha on the 11th of October or something to start Safari adventure! The trip is already a third of the way over, and I have now officially spent an entire month wandering around this amazing continent. Unbelievable.
So, this is just a short post to say that you won't be hearing from me for a little bit, but look for some more updates come the 11th. We'll be in Pembe-Abwe on the mainland Tanzania Coast on what appears to be, by common word and the veiled hints from Ken, our teacher, a beach all to ourselves in outrageous beach houses right on the water. And.... we'll be there for a week, snorkeling around on coral atolls for four to eight hours a day. And doing some night swims as well (or just skinny dipping, you know...) Eating good food cooked for us by the safari provider that we'll be with, and reading animal behavior/coastal ecology essays -- enticing, no? I'm stoked, as I'm sure many of the others are as well.
Enough for now, I suppose. Registering for spring semester classes soon, which is strange to think about. I don't know how I'll ever be able to transition back to the word of Lewis & Clark again. We shall see.
Peace and love from the coast of Africa!
Zach

The Pictures are BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis certainly is not like any school I have ever experienced! Staying in houses right on the beach and snorkeling all day. What a life, eh? You sure will be in for a rude awakening when you have to go back to real classrooms, so take it all in and enjoy!
ReplyDeleteIt was a real treat for me to catch you online the other day, Zach, and "chat" with you for a bit. Dad and I are back home and vacation is over, so back to reality for us now. I enjoyed seeing your pictures, especially the one of our "future daughter-in-law" :)
As always, be safe. I look forward to your next post.
