Michelle & I landed in Johannesburg, South Africa yesterday...it is so gorgeous here... The skies are a beautiful blue, and the soil is red! We're staying with Michelle's family friends - they're awesome! Kim, Linda, Belinda and John. Ha ha, get this - I've got my first cell phone... for emergencies and SMSing only. lol. The best part about it is that it has the Imperial Death March for a ring tone. woo! star wars!
errm, ya! The 28 hours in flight to get over here were worth it. I finished reading Animal Farm (very good - can't believe those pigs!) and Journey to the Centre of the Earth (that's going to satisfy my geo craving for a while). Also picked up The World of Suzie Wong in HK (appropriately!) and we'll see how that turns out. The 3 hr stopover to see my aunts, and 4 airplane meals later (plus cup noodles), I landed in Joburg - it was only 7 degrees out!! But it gets up to the mid 20s in the daytime. The sun sets at 5:30. Crazy! Speaking of which, we're leaving on the tour tomorrow...which means 5:30AM is when we'll have to be out the door. sleepy time! Maybe after some yearbook proofs (joy!)

HI MARY. I finally checked my email and apparently you sent me a blog link... awesome!!!
how's africa? I've gotta second AManda's motion - glad you're both there alive (are you still being good?)
It sounds like you kids are having fun. Much more than myself in Calgary. The only thing i've got going for me is that the crazy cute germans are coming out to play. Anyways, good times.
