I'm now in Namibia

July 14th, I think it's 11:30am here in Winhoek, Namibia!

WOW!! this is really funny! Getting to Namibia was really quite something..it was sure a LONG trip! I brushed my teeth and washed my face in many airports along the way, and I'm convinced that THAT made the difference!!

Well, what can I say? Africa continues to surprise and intrigue me! FIrst off, it's stinking cold here (it's cold/dry season now), and i have more layers on in AFRICA than I did at home! ;0) Secondly, Namibia is so beautiful and nice! i'm now living in a 'guest house' that has a complete kitchen, bathroom, cable tv (i watched 'smallville' yesterday!!) and super nice beds. OH my! WHat a stark, totally different contrast to my first night in Africa in Kano, Nigeria three yrs ago!

I guess it really makes a difference where you go in Africa, hey?

SO tommorrow morning, I fly with Angola Airlines to Lubango, Angola. WHat an experience that will be...hmm...I have so much to say, but i'm so tired right now and stuff that i can barely think.

ALl i can say is that I"m having an awesome time, i can't wait to finally be in ANgola tommorrow, and that I can't wait to start surgery! I"ve become quite the med student keener over the past few weeks!

p/s if i hear any more british accents, i think i'm going to go crazy! (I flew BA ;0)
love so much!
