Happy Thanksgiving!
This is wild. I'm in the bush, but the director of Children in the Wilderness has an Internet connection, so I can say how thankful I am for all of my friends and family the world over. I'm volunteering this week with Wilderness Safaris' nonprofit that takes disadvantaged children into the wilderness. It's fantastic and I'll have lots to report when I return on Monday. We are playing capture the flag, learning about the Okavango Delta and dodging an elephant in camp. He bumped up against my tent last night. Lots of photos to come. Lots of fun to be had with these children of Tubu Village in the Okavango Delta. Cheers on this turkey day.

The guide squeezes this flower and it squirts water like a water pistol

My friend, Ted, and his wife, Mary Ann, hosted a Safari Send-Off for me in Austin and treated me to a special mix of African music that already a UB student and a professor want to download.
