"As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti..."

I made it to Ethiopia! Hopefully my bag did too....

Next stop, Harare, then (~32 hours after departure) Lusaka!

DD in DC

I made it to DC, where I've got a 12 hour layover before my flight to Zambia via Ethiopia. Apparently there is a 24 hour food court outside security, but not wanting to hassle coming back through through security again, I tracked down the only thing still open inside security: Duncan Donuts. A half dozen donuts sounds like a well-balanced dinner to me!

The Boston cream was definitely my top pick.

Bound for Continent Six

I meant to post this weeks ago, but I'm leaving in five minutes and here goes... I'm going to Zambia for 8 weeks! I'm TA-ing (and teaching the chemistry of) a Conservation Ecology course taught by a close friend of ours for 10 American studying in Zambia for six weeks (Juniors Abroad style). We'll be seeing chimps and lions and National Parks and more....

There's a chance I might post some brief updates here, but odds are I won't have access to internet very often. We'll be backpacking/camping for the six weeks, cooking on camp stoves and such, out in the savanna or at research sites. Eva-Lynn is probably coming out for the last week, for a little safari action. I'm STOKED!!!!

Wish me luck!!!

"Fresh and Tasty"

My little bro's off on another adventure... backpacking in Patagonia:

He's clearly following in my footsteps. (I can't believe it's been six years since I was down there!!)
