In pictures: my last few weeks in Africa

---

Hello again!

I bet you thought you'd heard the last of Long Distance Laura.

Well, I never got round to posting photos of the last phases of my trip: an unforgettable week on Zanzibar with my sister Rachel; a couple of crazy weeks travelling around Lake Victoria with my friend Yvonne; and going on safari in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater.

As most of you know, after a summer of freelancing, I am about to start a new full-time job at IMG Artists in West London, so it's time to knuckle down once more - until the next adventure. Some of the events that these photos encapsulate are now a distant, but incredibly happy, memory....

Enjoy the pictures - all three pages of them! And thank you for following my blog.

A final glimpse of this idyllic scene...

And there she is!

Now this is the way to get around...

Thanks for the update!
They might be distant memories to you, but it's exciting to see your photos for the first time for us! I loved the look of the little hut by Lake Victoria - was it just one round room inside? I hope the transition from travel to work isn't too abrubt for you :)
