Goodbye Windhoek, Hello Capetown

The Challenge: One blog update in 11 minutes! Okay, here I go! Quick update about the past three or four days and the next couple of days. Well, on Monday we left the North of Namibia and came down to the Etosha National Park for the day....where we went on a SAFARI!! It was my childhood dream to go on a safari after I saw the Lion King, but I never actually thought it would happen. I feel like Randy Pausch. We saw SO many animals! Tons of giraffes and zebras and a few wildebeast and antelopes and dik-diks. Got a ton of great shots I'm so excited to show everyone. That night we stayed at the Mokuti Lodge (which is a 5 star hotel!) and had probably the best and most filling dinner I've ever had. We ate probably 5 or 6 courses each and were there for 2 hours! But it was soo good! It makes my mouth water to think of it! After that the whole choir jumped in the pool for a late night swim/group meeting. Only at Luther College can you do things like this. It was such an incredible day! Tuesday was another travel day, and we left Etosha for Windhoek again. Had a rehearsal at night with the Young Singers of Namibia. Today we got the morning off and we'll have our final concert tonight with the YSN, then tomorrow we fly out for Capetown. Time is flying by, both on my internet account and on this J-Term. We only have a week left! :'-( Hopefully we'll have better internet connections and be able to write more in Capetown. Hope you two are having a wonderful J-Term! See you second semester!
