Hello again, Unfortunately this will be a pretty uneventful blog update... The last time I wrote was 'pig day' so I will update from there: Pig day was acutally really fun! It took almost 7 hours for the pig to cook, but everyone took turns keeping an eye on it (except for those not eating any). For us, we still had a pretty great dinner, some coleslaw, roasted potatoes, salad and mango chutney and apple sauce. I really enjoyed it! After dinner we basically just had a few drinks, and the night ended with a few people dancing on the bar. [View Full Entry]

Hello again! We are now at Kande Beach in Malawi (which acutally has nothing to do with Candy, much to my dissapointment). Chitimba Beach was really fun! I really enjoyed myself there! It really doesn't hurt to be spending my days on a beach at all... The afternoon after I posted last, was pretty uneventful....until...one of the guys on the trip (Ivan) is really into hypnotism, and he was attempting to hypnotize Michelle, but she got a little freaked out and stopped. So I asked him if he could try to hypnotize me, since I have never been, and wasn't really [View Full Entry]

Hello again everyone… I just typed this entire blog entry, and clicked “publish” and the internet messed up. So this is take number 2, and hopefully it works! Sorry the blog wont be as detailed as it was, because I am running out of time. Anyways, I will update from where I left last…Zanzibar overall was amazing! I am convinced it is the most beautiful place in the world! My last day in Zanzibar I decided to do another of the optional excursions which was a Spice Tour (Zanzibar is known for its spices). We left the beach bungalows at 9:00 [View Full Entry]

Hello Again! Sorry about the delay in updating....internet is not quite as accesible these days! Everything is going great! Especially now that we are at Zanzibar island, which is absolutley paradise! The water is so clear and the sand is literally white. It's great weather as well! But I'll go back to our trip to the Ngorongoro crater and the Serengeti first... We woke up nice and early for our big game drive day. We took out tent down in the dark and had some breakfast and were on the road...it was about an hour drive up the the crater, which [View Full Entry]

Hello again! So our Oasis tour has begun! On Sunday, we met our group around 8:00 in the morning (after a delicious breakfast at the Silver Springs). We had an orientation meeting, payed our local payment - which covers our food along the way and a few other things, and loaded up "Fanny" our enormous yellow truck. There were about 12 of us who were just starting the journey in Nairobi, about 12 others have already been with Oasis and gone through Rwanda and Uganda. We drove FOREVER the first day! It was really great scenery...but an AWFUL drive. It was [View Full Entry]

Hello everyone! Mark - I loved your message...it made me a little emotional actually...but thank you so much for that! It made me feel really good. And yes! I'm impressed you got all the way through that without even one swear word! So... We've finished our volunteering. Yesterday after we were at Junction, we went back up to the office. We pretty much just played with the kids for about 4 hours. It was fun, but also really sad at the same time, knowing it was the last time we would ever see them... We took A TONNE of pictures though, [View Full Entry]

Hello again everyone! So it was pointed out to me that my last blog entry didn't quite all make it onto the website. So I guess I will just start from where it left off... I was explaining that Mondays are used basically as a "drop" in day for anyone to come in and visit and talk with Kilonzi, Brittney and I. This Monday, Kilonzi organized a sort of business meeting. He had some of the ladies bring some jewelry that they make with them to the office to show Brittney and I. The idea is that we are hoping to [View Full Entry]
