Enchanted Forest

The past few days have been filled with hiking through the neighboring animal reserve, taking trips to the mall, and starting classes (ew).
So about this game reserve, it is apparently the home to lots of zebras and other neat animals.

But I have yet to see any :( 
Except for Bambi and fam:
*Shoutout to Rachelle- my little Bambi on ice.
But don't worry, we found other cool things. Like a field...
And the Bridge to Tarabithia...
And pretty flowers...
Rain > Sun:
These past few days the weather has been SOOOO great.  It's been kind of overcast and it'll stagger between mist and rain on and off all day.  It's not that hot or humid at all.  It's the perfect jungle weather and it also reminds me of this one particular scene from The Parent Trap.  You know, when they move in to the isolation cabin together and it is super rainy...

Last night a small group of us went to the mall to see a movie because it's pretty darn cheap and it is super refreshing to get off campus.  (Also if you're wondering, an African mall is pretty much the exact same as an American mall.)  It was a British film telling the story of the Equal Pay Act for women and how it passed.  I would highly recommend it to anyone (especially you Molly Mac / Aims).
Click Click?
Classes have started and no one is in school mode but it'll be forced upon us soon.  Starting next week my bio class will go on safari every Thursday. Yay!  
And if you were wondering, people actually do talk in clicks in Zulu (the language that we all attempt to learn).  So if you want a good laugh then imagine being in a class setting and trying to pronounce words with clicks in the middle and be serious about it... Hope all is well in the states everyone :)
