I will, however, learn from my mistakes and write down a journal on my blackberry during the evening down time in the middle of the African bush. This way, a copy-paste is all I have to do for the blog entry to be uploaded. Hopefully, this idea will work and I'll be able to happily continue to blog as I used to do in the good ol' days.
Africa! Africa! Africa!
I'm so excited about this trip! I'm leaving in two weeks with 3 good friends (Eduardo, Vanessa and Guissepe) all the way from Nairobi, Kenya to Cape Town, South Africa. Over 3,000 miles of who knows what on the way south-
The whole route is by land which is the exciting part! From Nairobi we are supposed to take a shuttle that crosses us into Tanzania (the town of Arusha) to spend the night. Since it is mainly rainy season in Kenya / Tanzania in April, we are planning on driving a rental from Arusha to Mbeya close to the Malawian border. If that's not possible for whatever reason, we will take the uncomfortable and long bus ride. Once having crossed into Malawi, we will spend a couple of days relaxing on the lake before getting on our very own 4x4 straight down to Cape Town visiting some amazing sights along the way like Victoria Falls, The Okavango Delta, Soususvlei Sand Dunes, The Makgadikgadi Salt Pans, The Fish River Canyon and the city of Cape Town.
Truly, an unforgettable journey (hopefully on the positive side and we don't all get eaten by alligators or bull sharks in the Zambezi River). I'll post a few of the pictures I've found online of various destinations!
Enjoy!
