Let me start by saying that I meant to write while I was away. Really. But, when there's no wireless internet and at least five email-hungry travelers waiting for a hotel computer at any given moment, a girl only has time to painstakingly compose quick yet (hopefully) entertaining notes to her beau and, of course, mom and dad. (Picture me apologetically glancing at a growing line of people while trying to think of witty things to say about wildebeest)
I just returned from a 12-day press trip to Tanzania and Kenya. (I know, the universe has received major high-five-chest-bumps from me lately) I flew through Dubai (don't even get me started on that place), then to Tanzania, where my fellow writers and I hopped over to the Island Kingdom of Zanzibar. After that, the sprawling Serengeti (it sounds better if you roll the R), the cool highlands of Kenya, and the CITY of Nairobi. Writing all those words just filled my head with so many thoughts and explanations and stories that my brain actually made a sound. We're going to have to take this real slow, internet. I like you and I think you like me (right? RIGHT?), so I'm going to assume we have time to spread stories and pics over a few posts. For now, I just wanted to say jambo!
P.S. THANKSGIVING! Can you believe it?
