There's a Swahili proverb that says "Maji usiyoyafika hujui wingi wake". It means "if you have not yet been to the pond, you cannot know its extent." I've been studying Africa for some time now. It's about time to explore the true extent of the pond...

How do you know you're in Africa?
When you wake up, there's a monkey in the tree outside your bedroom. Life is good.
I'm here and all is well. I'll post more once I'm a bit more settled. Right now I'm going to go get some chai...
Monkey's have no qualms w/ stealing underwear... with this in mind, be sure to close your windows or at least keep underwear (and other valuables) out of window reach (This particularly is an issue if you are leaving clothes to dry after washing!)

Whatever. That's totally happened to me in Madison.
I'm glad you made it safely. Keep the updates rolling. Your flashdrive is your friend.
Miss you.
That's pretty cool. Did he see you and want to mate with you??? Because I know I would.
Love ya!

Hey- I just wanted to tell you that I did read Pride and Prejudice, since you wouldn't tell me the ending, and I really liked it!
