Merry Christmas!!!!

 

            I am currently sitting on the Baz Bus in my santa hat and doing my best not to feel sick as we swerve back and forth to miss potholes on the road.  I hope everyone who reads this is having a great Christmas and is taking every opportunity to be with their friends and family.  I apologize ahead of time for the many mistakes that may be in this blog because it’s hard to see the computer screen with the sun and it’s so bumpy that my fingers keep on sliding around on the keyboard.  Our stay at Bomvu was good but I think both of us were ready to move on and go stay somewhere else.  While we were there we did every single tour that klwas available except for horsekback riding.  We got to hike to a cave, Whit visited a village and saw the sacred pools, we did a cliff jump into the river- I got video of it and it was awesome!!- We saw hole in the wall, went surfing, did the drum workshop and saw the native girls from the village dance, we went to a masqurade party and had our faces painted, we went to a trance dance, bummed around and layed out on the beach.  We found a really good resturant and ate there yesterday for our Christams celebration since we knew we’d be on the road for a good 7 hours today. 

            We have some very good interesting memories including me getting stalked by a guy and a guy basically proposing to whitney to by wanting to give her a dowry of 11 cows.  J  It was a good experience to say the least.  We’ve made several friends with people who are also heading down to cape town for New Years- well actually every single person we’ve met is going to cape town for new years.  I thought being in New York was hectic but I have a feeling I’m in for something even bigger and I can’t wait!

            I haven’t really got anything to say but I will let ya’ll know how the game reserve goes.  Unfortunately since we had to stay in Coffee Bay an extra day that means we are only going to be working at the reserve for two full days but alas that’s how it works sometimes hey.  I’ve got some wonderful pictures to share from this place and just wish I could get somewhere with wireless so I can show you!

            That’s all for the moment.  MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
