May is Busy! Bela Bela and more...

A couple of weeks ago, Aminah (fellow Fulbrighter in KZN) visited me and we went to Limpopo province. My favorite spot really, Bela Bela Warmbaths. Aminah, like me, loves swimming, and who can resist swimming in hot spring pools when it is Autumn. The Hydro pool is huge, half indoor half outdoor, and people swim all night. At night the steam was rising from the water the moon was full; it was very cool!

Since that weekend, I have been busy with work. Lots of marking and invigilating time too.
This weekend I hope to go to a wedding and a graduation party. Next weekend, I leave for 2 week expedition in the rainforests of Madagascar on an Earthwatch expedition to study Lemurs. I have my hiking boots, camp gear, etc all ready. I am psyched! (though a little concerned about the leeches, uggh! They told me wool socks help keep them away, I bought quite a few pair let me tell ya.) More later...
