Wines Hi. Glad you're enjoying our local wines. If anyone reading this blog is struggling to find a bottle of KVM in their local shop, give up - It's KWV, not KVM. But it is good. Another good, reliable brand sold on a large scale is Fleur du Cap. Enjoy.
Chicken Surprise? Hey! Thanks for sending me a link to this! It sounds like you are definitely having the expirience of a lifetime. Although I would love to see some of the sites and cultures there, I will choose Final Exams over Chicken Surprise and second hand smoke ANY day! We miss you at Starbucks, looking forward to your return! -Peggy
Zoo Life- unplugged Breck, these are wonderful photos. Thank you for taking the time to share them. I love reading about your time in Africa. You'll really appreciate all these journal entries a few years from now.
Awesome Breck, I enjoy so much your blogs and the pics. they make me laugh and feel as though I'm there. Thank you for sending them to me !

wow what amazing pictures! i can't believe how many cool things you are getting to do! the zip line sounds fun...i did something like that at summer camp but we weren't flying off of a cliff and we didn't have a waterfall, just a slide, so i'm guessing your experience topped mine!
seigfried or roy seriously, be careful breckster. i dont want to have to change your feeding tube, adjust your tupee, or top off your eyeliner. they seem harmless, they jump through hoops, and they prance around as if they are your friend, but one move, and you are dead.
who are the REAL WILD animals Hey Breck!!!
I've been bad about writing in your travel blog!!!
I really enjoy recieving both you and Jayson's. It let's me get a different perspective on the whole trip!
The trick you played on the girls for April fools was just horrendous!
I would have been scared out of my mind! Wow! I guess Jayson has told you how I felt about that (you could have guessed). Nonetheless, you guys really pulled it off. Those pictures of you on the ground with the "blood" are very frightening!!!!
It sounds like you all are having a tremendous time!!!
The pictures have all been incredible!!! They give National Geographic a run for their money!
Anyway, keep having fun and get the relaxation you deserve!
I wish I had the opportunity that you guys are experiencing right now!
Sincerely,
Natalie
full day The pictures really add a great deal to the post- thanks for taking the time to load them, Breck. I would have played with the baby tigers too.
as always you crack me up. did you really have to go to couseling when you were younger due to trama from being attacked by a turkey!?!? i am glad you are having such a great time but hurry back starbucks isn't the same!
Hey Breck! I always appreciate the way you can take a day where probably nothing really extra ordinary happens and turn it into something that we are all jealous that we did not get to experience it. It sounds like you all are having a good time. I am stuck in the rainiest season in the San Francisco area's history. We are breaking records everyday and they have no end in site for the next week or so. I am thinking about getting into the UVA/UVB booth at work and tricking myself into thinking that I am getting sun. After I graduate, Allen and I are going to have to move closer to the equator than we are now. Well, I'll check in with you later and because I am thinking about it right now . . . . Happy Birthday in April if I forget to tell you on the 21st.

wow! it sounds like you all are having an interesting time! i can't believe all that stuff about rapes there! that's awful! the rest of it sounds very fun though...i love walking everywhere so i am jealous of you all. whenever i walk anywhere here ( like to starbucks) everyone just looks at me like "what's wrong with you? where is your car? is it broken? do you not have one? are you homeless?..." have a great time and take a pic of the baby lion!
What an opportunity This is such a fab account of your experiences in Pretoria I'm sharing it with the gang out here. Are you visiting any other African nations you lucky Wombat (For want of a better expression)!
Goedemiddag! Breck, thank you so much for including me on your update list. I hadn't realized that you were already in South Africa! Please keep the treats coming and continue to update your blog, because I'll be reading it. Your writing really brings the reader close because you take the time to note little details like the Dutch word for "sweet", how "plush" the cityscape is, and how odd you felt when you had to let others clean up after you. It reveals something not only about others, but about yourself as well.
Stay safe, take care of yourself, and keep in touch...
Sasha
Post Script: Since you're staying with Dutch-speaking people, I'll include a link so that you can grab a few Dutch phrases (with pronunciation): http://www.ielanguages.com/dutch1.html. It might come in handy.
I'm off again. Leaving the friendly confines of the Sooner State for another adventure. I am going to tentatively call this chapter of my life, MIA in the RSA. I hope that this journey to South Africa leads me to some self discovery, some rest and relaxation, and of course some communicable diseases. If you want to join me, feel free to hop aboard Air Breck and fasten your safety harnesses. It's gonna be a.......... full info
