Traveler Hi! Just getting the hang of this program - very cool! I can see where you are on the map and where you've been! The varied places you are walking through are fascinating - just love the trail through the grasslands and along the bluff! Glad you got a new headlampt - simply can't do without light. Enjoy tomorrow!

Traveler Isn't it awesome when a trip ticks all the right boxes! So delighted to hear of your journey and that you are loving each day! Love seeing the pictures - almost nothing beat absorbing new cultures, sights, sounds, odors, and ambiance! Still can't believe how early you start your morning and interesting that others are still enjoying their nights. You'll love Africa - we have to get up around 0500 to do the morning safari. Wishing you ongoing good health.
Traveler Honestly Vicki you would love the hiking each day. I mean there are some lows but overall an experience in solitude with nature. It is very peaceful. You can hear the bells clanging on the horses and cows. Lots of goats I think of you when I see them🥰 Thank-you for your good wishes and to you as well💕💕💕
