NCAA and Zanzibar

Congratulations to me! I won the NCAA $2.00 pool hosted by my dad :) That is right folks, there is a check for $26.00 coming my way!

I am heading to Zanzibar for the Easter holiday with my friend Sandra. Emily was originally supposed to be leaving tonight to head back to Canada, but has decided to stay on until April 23 as she is working as a volunteer with an organization called "Save the Elephants". They are GPS tracking elephants in the region of Samburu and her role is to figure out how to display this on Google Earth... so frickin' COOL!

Back to Zanzibar... yes I am really looking forward to another coastal getaway, sitting on a beach, reading, and scuba diving. Should be a great break.

Hope everyone has a safe holiday!

You may be excited about having won the pool, but now I have to listen to Jeff talk about how close he was to that $26!
Have a great time in Zanzibar,

Blogger Hello from Julia said...

i found your blog on delightful blogs. it's wonderful! i'd really like to link you on my blog, if that's ok with you. it's so important - and so much more interesting - to hear stories from different perspectives. i just got the inside scoop on senegal. time to visit that continent! my great aunt lived in kenya 40yrs ago and i am looking around the flat at all the treasures that have entered my european family's homes as a result... i'll definitely read up regularly. let me know if you'd like to cross link, if you decide to add lists, etc. later. have a wonderful time in aaaaafrica. -julia
