Okay, so I convinced the lady at the internet cafe to stay open an extra 15 minutes so i could write a line or two. Each day of this trip has felt like the most amazing day of my life, only to be topped by the following day. US v England was everything it was hyped to be, plus pure chaos before and after the game trying to find parking, then our cars. Americans celebrated the draw while the Brits dropped their heads.
Safari exceeded my lofty expectations. Last night we watched 2 lions eat a wildebeest from 15 feet away. Seriously. Giraffes, elephants, rhinos, you name it. We saw a rare porcupine, ready for battle. Warthogs, zebras, and so much i can't imagine what it was like. I had to remind myself that this wasn't a zoo. The animals could come at us at any moment. Or run away....and keep running. But generally they did neither. Except for the angry elephant.
Off to see Brazil v North Korea tonight. wow.

ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing trip! If you have a chance, make sure to hike to the top of Table Mountain in Capetown!
I'm so jealous you got to go on a safari...I've always wanted to do that!
