After a wonderful weekend in the bush... I'm back in Durban facing the realities of being in college. Yes, that's why I'm here, but sometimes it seems like it'd be much more fun to be out galavanting non-stop!
The experience this weekend was absolutely incredible... we saw pretty much everything I could have imagined, except for a leopard. I think I got some great pictures, though I've only seen them on the little screen on my camera because I'm refusing to let myself upload them to my computer until I finish my work. I'm very excited to see them full-size though, and to share them as well!
There were many times during our safaris (we had 6 game drives total) that I wished I could have friends and family from home with me, so that I could share the experience with them... but stories and picture will have to do until I can afford to bring everyone to a place like that ;)
Two Zulu orals this week, and two papers... followed by several assignments due next week as well. As soon as I make some noticeable headway I'll reward myself (and you guys!) with some lovely pictures from my weekend with the animals :)

Hi Honey! I am so glad you had a good time and were able to actually see some of the Africa we were expecting in our imaginations! I can't wait to see the pictures. Your brothers will be thrilled.
Let reality take control for a bit and get ready for school. I know how hard it is... I know you will pull it out and get everything done. We can wait for the pictures; they will be just as enjoyable next week as today!
Smile...I love you.
