Animals-wet knees and chicken burgers

So....arrived in Nairobi to a power cut-fortunately a few weeks living on the mountain has got me used to them hehehe Was good to be back, and the family I stayed with were good fun. The last few days though have been characterised by wet knees.....everyone has dogs-check out the plural! I made the mistake of wearing skirts, and so have had wet knees almost constantly much to everyone's amusement! Why do dogs want to slobber everywhere?! Trying hard to be calm round all the animals, and even pat them on the head, but apparently my anxiety is very obvious and amusing to everyone. Never mind. Give me a few months and I will be a Dr Dolittle!

Came to Zanzibar yetserday after an 18 hour bus ride-oh my word!!! It is stunning here, really beautiful place. Last night something came over me. Wish I could blame extreme starvation, serious intoxication, or even peer pressure, but none are valid. I saw someone eating a burger and was desperate for one! I tried to resist, tried to reason, but to no avail. It may just be a blip....but man, it was a  delicious blip....we will see, had forgotten how incredible chicken tastes. Has Africa broke me already?! We will see....may just eat meat on Zanzibar.....drooling just looking at this pic again though....

Off to the beach today for some chill out time. Had a lil look round my new school and was a lil nervous to see monkey traps....need to be calm for arrival!
