WARNING: It's Illegal to Drive Giraffes, Zebras, and Sunscreen Ninjas in this Vicinity


Yesterday:
1 nap, 3 game drives. Good enough. Ok.. Ok.. I'll tell you if you stop begging. We woke up at 5:30. It was just because we want to. Actually, we went on a safari, if you want to call it that. Te guide apparently woke up on the wrong side of the bed. He yelled at us because we walked in e dark, he was saying "camp only fenced for Elephants, not small animals" like a lion is small " and that we don't want kids to come face to face with a lion. You parents would run away and leave the kids behind". This dude thinks that I would not run as fast ad my little feet could take me if I saw a lion 10 feet away from me. Thus guy definitely does not know me. So afterwards on the safari we saw a lot of giraffes, and zebras. Later, we went on 2 other game drives. One we saw buffalo for the first time, and also hyenas for the first time. The other one was not to successful, but we don't need to go into that. 
So while we where Braai-ing, a hyena showed up and my mom almost jumped out of her pants. She yelped and pushed all the kids into the kitchen that had 2 enforced doors. I was laughing how scared my mom was, I was scared to, but definitely not like that.
So anyway, last night my mom woke up at 2:00 and heard notices outside. She got her bag and pulled out the mini tubes of sunscreen. She started throwing them in the corner where the sound was coming from. We now call her "Mom, The Sunscreen Ninja, Scarer of Hyenas, Killer of Sunscreens, and Defender of the Safari Tent" I laughed when I heard about it.

Today: 
We started by driving to find a new place to stay. We found a place, but it was at a fork in the road. We chose the left side. Apparently my good lucky left side ended not being so lucky for others. It turned out to be a one way track leading to nowhere and since we have a trailer, we couldn't back up, so we had to get up and out of the car, so the dads could manually do it. On the way down, we saw a sign at the fork that said it was illegal to turn that way, but apparently the dads were to busy getting us lost to have noticed. 
So at this place we decided to stay, and we've been chilling all day long. We went for supper at a place called The Clay Pot. It was good, and I got some more Hake that I always want. hake is a fish that you can't get in the U.S. So now I'm lying on my parents bed, blogging to you from half way across the world.

(I've run out of things to say in different languages, so yore gonna have to bear with me hear, it's not like I can Google it.......
Wait........
Be right back....
Gotta find nearest computer.....)
Bye
