Becky's list of things things to do before you die:
Swim with wild dolphins- tick Even more amazing than you could possibly imagine, especially as they wanted to swim with us and weren't being forced to, and as it was complete luck that we found them. We were meant to be going to look at coral reefs and fish but found dolphins instead and decided that that would be the better option! Brief update on the last week; spent a couple of days in the Serengeti, saw a lion kill a warthog- very cool, saw a leopard- even cooler, saw all the big five except a rhino- also cool, and got tanned during it all! After that came down to Dar es Salaam, where I had my first dip in the Indian Ocean ,then the next day took the ferry across to Zanzibar where I am now. Spent the first day doing a spice tour where we saw alsorts of exciting things being grown, tried amazing fruit (did you know you can get a fruit that tastes like apple and custard and it's called a custardapple and tastes incredible?!) then had an excellent meal made from the spices we'd just seen. Afterwards drove up to the north of the island and spent the rest of the afternoon and all the following day on the beach, in the sea and at the bar. It's a tough life here, but we're just about coping. The group I'm with are all nice, mainly in the 20-30 age group, and I've found a friend to go around South Africa with me, so it's all good. 6:54 PM Comment (0) ... PermaLink |
