ZIM, ZAM & MOZ

---

I'm way behind on le blog
So here for you all to see
A quick update
Via the medium of crap poetry

15 hours north of Soweto
Zimbabwe's known as Zim
Tried to steal the keys
From Mugabe's Bee Emm

On a 2 day hike in le east
"WTF! It's where lions breed"
We were told by our host the Doctor
"And where leopards chill in trees!"

Victoria
She Falls
Nipped into Zambia for rafting
But in Zim I'd left my balls

Bulawayo I then did see
Met studio artists
Persecuted by The Ministry of Truth
Struggling to exist

Met some cool guys
Some gems, they had a hoard
For $500 each
"Can you take them across the border?"

Then for only 7 days
Poor, desperate Mozambique
Hit a beach or two to chill
Again Soweto I did seek

Finit (&apologies)

Snippet of further Soweto shenanigans with my first visit to a recording studio with the local hip hoppers (NOT SAFE FOR WORK or for the ears of small children!!!) on this never to be released choooon:

hi
Hi Chris, sounds like an awesome adventure, africa is on eof the most amazing places. It's boring as her i in sydney. have had a few adventures myself - hiked fo rtwo weeks in larapinta - alice springs (cold wet not at all arid!!!, got hypothermic), spent a week in tassi hiking the walls of jerusaleum and two weeks climbing at booroomba rock ACT. lots of travelling to bris vegas for weddingss and the like, now trying to save in the fast paced expensive and over-rated economy doing the dummiest job ever to save and get out of sydney and travel! I mean it this time. i am getting too old and all of my friends are marrid with kids. sounds like the unhappy merger of two sitcoms. Not seen any bands since you left bar the pixies, the drum (funny) and that's about it. Miss your musical selections and gatherings. Anyway, enjoy, enjoy enjoy! It's all to fast and furious and too short. Always Sandra
