"Late last night - whoo yeah!" and Saturday

Saw some mega cute Bushbabies last night around dusk. Pretty agile wee creatures the way they spring between the trees. Got some pretty cool shots - eventually, before they dashed off along the fence:




















SATURDAY

Our day off, hoorah! Hung out playing monopoly most of the morning, which I graciously lost (LOL), drank brandy coffees and then headed out to a shopping centre out in the middle of nowhere. So weird compared to shops in New Zealand. there were about 8 restaurants with out door dining, and then a shoe shop, a hardware store, a post office, bookshop and a couple of supermarkets. Kind of a weird combo but I was pleased to pick up some snacks. After that back to base where we decided to so some baby giraffe spotting cos Mark, the volunteer co-ordinator had missed out the last time we saw it . Unfortunatly no sign of the baby G but Doug managed to get pretty close to some of the rest of the herd. Rather amazing creatures.






We're off to local bar tonight which should be interesting.
By the way, I've tried time and again to respond to emails but there seems to be some problem with the connection or systems around here. So if you haven't heard back it's not through lack of trying.
