hello everyone! i just got back from my trip to the ngorongoro crater, the shifting sands and oldu pai/vai(can't remember how to spell it). it was a fun trip, but very very cold! i can't believe that it is so freezing here! i wish i would have brought more clothing! the trip was fun. our safari was interesting, i saw all kinds of animals in the ngorongoro crater. i'll post pictures on my snapfish site when i'm not so exhausted! i feel like i haven't slept in days. school starts up again tomorrow and then next weekend we go to live with our host families for a week straight. it's a little intimidating, i'm not going to lie. but i think it will definately help me out with my swahili...i won't be able to speak anything else! anyway, i know this is short and not very detailed, but i have to go do a lot of homework and tend to a sick roomate :( more will come shortly. kwaheri!
