Mid - term maddness

Alright so my last entry was really short because i had just spend 6 hours on the truck, gotten little sleep, and was very stressed about mid-terms. But now i am well rested, done with mid-terms and ready to give an actual account of whats going on here. Alright so ya after swakupmond we went to Dune 45 and hiked it with the sunrise. Then to some canyon, can't remember the name but it is the 2nd most beautiful in the work (hehe). Thennn Fish river canyon (after some traveling) which is the 2nd biggest canyon in the world, that was sooo sweet. Then we spent a few days at felix Unite doing classes before we got on the orange river to do some kayaking and rapids. Alexis and i rocked it! THen we traveled here to CAPE TOWN. finished my mid-terms here (Phew) and celebrated with a dinner out and some dancing last night. Life is good. I wish i could put pictures up but i can't :/. You will all just have to wait until i am home. miss everyone!

ok first of all sorry about bad grammar, punctuation, spelling and such on here. I have NO time to think about that. :D. So I am still in swakopmund and will be leaving saturday to go...well i really don't know. The only thing I have to report about right now is that this morning we went sand sledding! SO much fun. it is really exhilerating. The guys who worked there were telling us how it is a pretty sweet job, sit in the sand all day and chill. Maybe someday ill come back to swak :D. Anyway i am still picking sand out of my ears from that event but it was so worth it. I don't know when ill get internet next, maybe not until capetown?
Later

hey guys!
Well a lot has happened since i last wrote. hmm let me try and remember. Ok so last weekend was spent on the truck traveling the whole time, then we go to ETOSHA! yay. thats where we saw LOTS of wildlife including the black rhino (which is really rare). So we had some classes and animal time in Etosha. Then we went to CCF! oh and in etosha we got our totems, which are animals that represent a family in the shona culture. I am the hippo (mvuu). Melissa and I are now family :D. Ok so CCF is the cheetah conservation fund. So cool. we got to see cheetah's be fed, run, and learn about the conservation they do there. We also got to talk to a peace core guy who was ending his term, nic. He told us about HIV and AIDS in africa, it was really good to get the low down. But ya all of that was super cool. Then we went to another town for a night yesterday. There we found out that Nicole will be leaving us in the next few days, this is really sad so we are making her last few days awesome. Today we drove to swacupmond, Namibia (which means "the mouth of poop"). Hehe. We are staying in little aframe buildings and are being treated to pizza tonight. SO EXCITING! :D
miss you all!
