WE'REEEE BAAAAACK!
The Kalahari trip was AMAZING. So much to share with you! But first thing's first:
I know it's super late, but look, I'm a huge Halloween nut. In fact it's always been my favorite holiday! When else can you dress and act like a complete nutter and not only not be stopped/shunned, but be encouraged ... celebrated, even?
No, kids, there's nothing like Halloween. There's no Christmas-like gift-buying frenzy/pressure, there's no Thanksgiving-like massive feast preparing ... just CANDY. Candy candy candy! PLUS, it's only 2 days after my birthday -- so win, win, win, right?
But 2 problems with Halloween this year: 1. Halloween is just not a big deal in South Africa. OHHH, woe. South Africa, for all the aforementioned reasons, I encourage you to embrace Halloween to your crazy, candy-loving bosoms. But the biggest problem, was that 2. We'd be camping at Augrabies National Park (just a short distance away from our ultimate destination, the Kalahari National Park) on Halloween.
But never fear, my good friend Gill came to the rescue. She sent us off with a witch's hat and a whole bagful of goodies!
So, Gill, this one's for you!
I'll be back as soon as I can to the blog -- we have exactly 1,891 pictures to sort through from both Augrabies and the Kalahari.
Yeah. Yeah .......
