hey all sorry about the long delay.  internet has been funky .  so...

last night we all went to the rocks on the river to watch a beautiful full moon.  just impossible to describe so I will leave it to picture s.

we spent three days at ruaha game park and got mock- charged by a bull elephant, which was one of the best moments of my life.  getting charged by a tusked bus is rather awe- inspiring.  we saw lions too, and birds, cuz that's Eli for you.  in two days we visit the maAsia, which will be awesome.  can't wait to  dance with them, which is basically jumping up and down for hours on end.  CARDIOOOOOO!!!  also, rugby in an hour.

also the people here never cease to entertain.   a businessman just pointed out some "wazungu wazuri" girls to me and asked whether I liked white girls or black girls better.his wife was there too.

as  for Swahili, I'm still plugging away with Deus.  he's a great teacher.  oh, and today I both wrote a poem and got rejected from Rochester medical school.  very productive.   I would like to have a keyboard right now.  I shall try and post again soon!  love you all, write me stories!

  1. JC!! It's Caroline. I am loving your blog updates , they are making so much more excited to go next year!! It sounds like you are having a fantastic time in Tanzania, gotta love Eli and all his ventures/ideas. I don't know if I would say that getting charged at by a bull elephant would be one of the best moments ever.... sounds scary. You are missed by everyone here at Houghton Sorry to hear about Med. School. You will get in somewhere. I can't wait to go next year to Tanzania. You are obviously loving it. I hope that I do as well. Be sure to take lots of pictures.
