Moving on ...

It's time. We're moving onto the next leg of our journey. We won't be heading back to India at this point so guess what's next? Yep! Africa. :D Scary and exciting!

After much research and contemplation, we have decided to book an overland safari through the east. This was no easy task! We contemplated doing it ourselves but that didn't last very long at it doesn't seem that easy to get to all the game parks, etc on your own. Public transportation is scarce in some areas and we're not the hitching type or driving ourselves in Africa type so overland it is! There are many, many overland companies out there and it's difficult to decide which countries you really want to hit. Anyways, with much thought, we picked a safari which goes across Tanzania, Kenya, and Uganda. It looks like we'll be going into Congo as well if we decide to do the Gorilla trek (depends on Ian's passport situation). For those interested, here's our
trip! The highlights for us include the Serengeti, Ngorongoro crater, Masai Mara Reserve, and being at the Equator! The Gorillas will be quite cool as well.

We'll be heading to Zanzibar to chill out for over a week before meeting up with our group. Zanzibar sounds very cool. Nice old town to wander through on one end and deserted beaches on the other. Can't go wrong. After that, it'll be camping for 21 days straight! All I gotta say is, we better see some amazingly huge animals out there! :D
