Day 95

Location: Amman, Jordan

So quick update since I’m on few time. I arrived in Amman, Jordan yesterday from Johannesburg, South Africa. My last month in South Africa, Lesotho, and Swaziland was flipping AWESOME and I won’t forget it. In fact, I’m already planning on a return to so a trip from Cape Town up to Vic Falls in one June. Since my last update I’ve been to many more game drives and seen many more animals. Swaziland I was fortunate to visit an orphanage run by the warmest woman ever. Swaziland has the 2nd highest numbers of AIDS in Africa and you can see that many of the children were physically ill and yet they carried with them such simple happiness and joy. It was one of the best experiences I’ve had yet dancing with the local kids and learning their culture. After that I went to Kruger and saw 4 of the Big Five. Missed out on the leopard but did see a small pride of Lions (2 females and 6 cubs) eating a giraffe. I must say, overland trips through Africa is the way to go and camping is not half bad. That’s the real way to bond with others. It won’t be my last time going with Nomad. Now I’m in Amman and I’m off to the Dead Sea tomorrow and etc. See you guys later!
