Partying it up


17/5/13
One of the things I am absolutely loving about the last few legs of this journey has been meeting so many awesome people.  We met a few of Australians and Brits in Malawi who are travelling in the same general direction as us, as well as two Israeli men and a German woman in Lilongwe, so our general posse by the time we got to Livingstone was pretty huge!  It’s awesome.  Some volunteering, others taking a gap year, others working as journalists and pilots, still others just travelling around for months at a time just because they can.  We have a great time!
To celebrate our last night of travel last night, we went to a super fancy hotel with zebras in the yard that overlooks the top of the Falls to see the sunset.  It was breathtaking.  Seeing the spray coming up from the falls as the sun sets next to it. Wow.
Then we went to an Indian restaurant for dinner. Holy goodness gracious. Indian food should be in my life all of the time.  It was delicious!! Spicy, warm, filling, perfectly blended flavors. 
Back at Jolly Boys, the party was just getting started with the rest of our group, and we went out on the town for one last hurrah.  Overall, this trip has been inspiring, exhausting, magnificent, and friend-filled.  But I am looking forward to getting back to teaching.  After all, that’s what I came here for.
