I've been so productive. I'm really quite proud of myself. At least half of my ISP is written:))) Now I just have the discussion and conclusion, which is the part which I actually have to think about which is why I've started procrastinating over the past couple of days. But it'll get done. I have high hopes for tomorrow.

We've been having some fun doing random things like tonight it's our friend's birthday and we're renting a combi (a common form of public transportation, sort of like a buses in the US but it's more like an 18-seater hippie van). Next week we're going to go to Tsodilo Hills for about 3 days which is a place with old "bushmen" rock paintings. it should be pretty neat. It's the one place that if we travelled, our academic director said to go there. I've been getting sort of bored with being here. There's only so much in Maun, and I'm ready to move on to another part of the country. After tsodilo, I might travel a bit before I have to be back with the whole group in Gabs but I havent' quite figured it out yet.

It's some sort of holiday here. Something like labor day? All it really seems to mean is that everything is closed, which didn't work well for me when my shoe broke today and I came to town to get new ones. With no luck finding an open store, I decided to grace you all with an update, but I'm realizing that there's not that much to tell. Hence, you get to know that I have a broken shoe for lack of more exciting information.

so i'm sure that you are back in the states now, but i was just catching up on your blog now that i am back from tanzania, and a combi sounds just like a 'dala dala' in tanzania.
if you are in mn this summer we should catch up!!
