Sights to Behold



So you have see the animals, you have seen us having tons of fun, now a few pictures of some of the gorgeous scenery we saw along the way.

But a little side note to follow up the trip. As we have previously mentions, one of our guides, Titus, had a bit of a crush on Lynn. Chester and I found the entire thing quite amusing and basically sat back and watched as he cornered her most days to have private conversations with her. During one of these conversations, Titus let Lynn know that he really like her fashion. This seemed a bit strange as Lynn mostly wore capri's and t-shirts. He followed it up with telling her that he liked the way her pants sat on her hips so he could see her muffin top. OK maybe he didn't say muffin top, but Chester and Kirsten know that is what he meant. So as the end of our trip approaches we are anxiously awaiting Titus to propose to Lynn or make the big move. As a side note Lynn would be wife number 2 if he did. Lynn thought she had dodged the bullet when

we were ready to catch our shuttle, but Titus insisted he walk all of us to the shuttle and got Lynn in the back of the pack requesting her phone number and e-mail. Lynn managed to find ways to fend him off and off we were to the US. Lynn thinking she politely told Titus she was not interested. Oh how wrong she was.

A week or so after our return to the US, Kirsten got a call at her parents house in Omaha. It was Titus. He was requesting Lynn's phone number. Kirsten pawned it off on to Chester. But by then Titus had also called Lynn's mom and she graciously gave him her number. Apparently he must have gotten our emergency contact numbers and he called our parents houses. Titus finally relieved that he could hear Lynn's voice again. Wanted to know if he could keep in contact with her. So if you see Lynn please make sure you ask how her Zimbabwean boyfriend is going these days.

So to close out, We have uploaded some short cool videos on to youtube. If you go to this link youtube/glesnek you should see all the the videos
