May's Kim-ism.

The restaurant I work at has a baby grand piano. It must be moved into the centre of the restaurant at the end of each shift and locked up. I was closing by myself, and like all those in management, my boss tried to be helpful. Result: Baby grand piano lands on my big toe. Lots of blood. Toenail looks like it might not make it.
I left a message for Dave. It is currently 11pm. No stores are open. My only options for disinfectant are hand sanitizer, salt water, vodka, or brandy. Lets hope it works out.... (in the interim, Mars and I are drinking wine to dull the pain. Seems to be working.)

Alex the Great-ish.

The last stop on our extensive travels through Egypt was the city of Alexandria... founded and named after Alexander the Great in 332BC. This is the city where the famous "Queen of the Nile" Cleopatra also reigned. The ancient city was considered to be the intellectual capital of the world at that time, due in large part to it's massive library. The modern city was again popular in the early 1900's when foreigners came in and built some beautiful buildings. Today, the city is a bit run down.. a sad version of it's former glory. However, the library, which burnt down in ancient wars, was just rebuilt. It was GORGEOUS. The largest modern library in the world. Aunt Gale - you would have died! We spent a while wandering around there marvelling at the architecture and lamenting about how depressing our university library was in comparison (if Weldon library looked like this, I may have actually gone to it! haha). "Alex" is also known for it's great seafo...

Timon and Zazu.... where are you?

Am in Kenya. Literally in the middle of the Lion King movie. I swear, I was expecting the lions we drove RIGHT up to every day to have the voice of James Earl Jones. I cannot even come close to describing how amazing the last 2 days have been. We spent them in the Masi Mara reserve, just driving around looking for wildlife. We saw so much! I had to stop myself to realize that what I was seeing was real. In 2 days, we saw: Gazelles, zebra (about 2000!), ostrich, Lion (so many! multiple prides), elephant, giraffe, buffalo, maribou stork (a scavenger.. it eats babies!), vulture, waterbuck , impala, warthog (like Pumba !), baboon, eland, antelope, hyena, cheetah, wildabeast , heartabeast (I think tour guide made that up), black rhino (very rare), hippo, and a massive crocodile! We have seen 4 out of 5 of the "Big 5" African game, as well as all cast members of the Lion King except Timon ( meerkat ) and Zazu (some strange bird that is pretty rare). We've seen babies, matin...

Water water everywhere!

Again I'm on the worlds slowest and most expensive internet. Am having an AMAZING time in Africa. Our group is lots of fun, and we've seen some beautiful places. Spent 4 nights on Zanzibar Island (off the Tanzanian coast), and it was a beach paradise. SO freaking nice, with beautiful weather and lots of drinks (and, importantly, no tents!). Spent time in the water there, as well as in Lake Malawi... 2 days there! Am having a great time. Sorry for the short emails and no pics, but know that I'm having a great time and loving every minute of my last days of travel!
