So, early tomorrow morning, Shane and I leave for our big overland adventure. We just went to our predeparture meeting and found out some interesting news. The agent that we have been dealing with told us that we would end the trip in Zambia and that we would stay there for 3 days before leaving to go to Joburg.
When we got to our meeting tonight however, we found out that we are actually going to Zimbabwe...SURPRISE! Lesson: You just can't trust agents. So, we have booked 3 nights in Zambia and will not even be there. Evidently, there is just a small bridge that we can walk over that connects the 2 countries, so it shouldn't be too hard to get to Zambia. I guess we will find out in 3 weeks:) This is, of course, after we booked a ticket from Cape Town to Joburg earlier this week that we will actually never use and didn't need. It seems like we just keep making these little mistakes that cost a lot of money. (They are not always our fault though. We have had plenty of help.) I think we have resigned ourselves to the fact that we might not actually get to travel for a year and a half. The money is running slowly but surely (well not exactly slowly.) But, we will see.
So, for the next 3 weeks, we will be out of contact with the world. I will post again as soon as I get to a computer, but just so you know that I am not slacking. I will just be in the bush camping and enjoying the stars, the animals, the campfire and everything else that Africa has to offer.
