JAMBO!
So today and yesterday we went on safari! It started out driving in the car for 4 hours to this lake (with no water...) I was with Deb, Alex, Alex, Maddie and PK
We all got kind of sick in the car, and tried to sleep. Henry was our driver, and we stopped at this overpriced tourist place but we got to eat lunch with wild cats! (not lions though...) But we did see elephants! They came 10 feet away from our trucks! My favorite part of the trip was when we handed out our extra food. Deb collected everyone's uneaten food and we passed it out to random kids on the side of the road! The look on their faces and their smiles made that experience just the most amazing thing ever. We slept at the Highview hotel (at like 2000 feet) after watching and dancing with native dancers. This morning, Sam, Gary and I woke up at 6 to go running. Turns out if your all wearing hiking boots, EVERYONE will hear you. So we didnt... we just sat and watched the sunrise (which was good because i did NOT want to go running...) We then ate breakfast and left at 8. We drove for a really long time, and ended up in the Ngorogoro crater, which is like 9 miles all around. It was part desert and part swamp, and we watched a lion and a wildabeast fight... pretty cool i must say! On the way home, we got a flat tire in pitch black so it took us a while to get home. I have loved going to the school everyday and being with Masa, and the other kids. I am LOVING it here and will be sad to go home :( but excited to make my photoalbum with my 600 pictures! (is it bad that that is what ive beent thinking about the whole trip?) Haha Kwaheri!
