another brief update

Hey guys,
I realize I'm kind of falling behind on this whole "keep everyone posted" thing... I have another free day here in Plettenberg Bay. We head to Grahamstown tomorrow morning. Oh 8 hour bus rides, how I loathe you. Actually, I'm kind of ambivalent. Travelling with these monkeys is not so bad, and an 8 hour bus ride is NOTHING compared to our flight here. I smell bad. My clothes stink. My laundry is being done down the street right now. The 8 hour bus ride from Stellenbosch wasn't so bad either, so I'm sure I can handle this no problem.
I continue to get close with people on the trip.
Today is a VERY blustery day. It's still sunny and nice though, so I don't mind being outdoors.

Dear South Africa,
On the behalf of the city of Seattle, let's trade winters.
Sincerely, Mykaila.

I have loads of journaling to catch up on if I want to make my page count goal...
My journal will be availible to read once I get back, and I think we're having a party at some point so I can show everyone my pictures and tell my stories and make vetkoek for everyone. Does that sound good? Oh it sounds brilliant.
Man luann, it's time to go. Ja. Write you later!

Plettenberg Bay.

I don't really want to write right now... but here are some pictures of where I am right now (one picture=1000 words, right? haha)

So there are the few I've taken of Plettenberg Bay that are horizontal and that will upload. hahahaha. oh internet cafes, you amuse me.

I love and miss you all dearly.
