As I’m writing this, flocks of graceful white birds are winging over the trees, one group of twenty or so after another after another… as yet another day passes by filled with absolutely nothing but writing, eating, sleeping and long walks around the beautiful grounds of this lodge. I did get a call from my husband, which was wonderful! And my friend Ashley arrives tonight around 9:30pm. I am so looking forward to her arrival. She is a dear, close friend with whom I’ve shared many exotic trips and exciting moments. We have had a sort of unspoken commitment to travel together to some exotic place every year or two (depending on our schedules), ever since our admittedly semi-irrational trip to Baghdad in 1998. I hope she’s not too tired from her flight from Detroit, because I have us booked at a Bush Safari Camp, leaving tomorrow morning (a six-hour drive on dirt roads) for three days. Nothing like jumping right into the deep end when you’re on vacation! We will have nineteen days together.
