MORE BETTY'S BAY

SOME VACATION!

The trip to Betty's Bay has been some amazing vacation. fun in the sun, lots of surf, sand, bbq's, and the bog! what they call the lake i have dubbed "the bog" cuz that is exactly what it is! silty bottom with lots of soft gook for your feet to nestle into! but i'm telling you, swimming the bog at sunset is truly one of the most beautiful things i've done. scotland-like mountains all around and the reed-stained water and a 400 meter run each way to each end. a nice long swim! my new favorite place to swim! 

but i've really been enjoying cape town. saw some cricket, had a good meeting with farm film prods, and have enjoyed everyone i've met! COTW is fitting in just fine!

this will be a short blog entry. need to ski-daddle. but wanted to keep you posted!

i fly home sunday. so weird to realize that africa is my home now. i'm flying home to africa
in kenya! that is home. not LA, not Cali, not the mainland of america. i am a Citizen of the
World currently resting my head in africa, and watching the baboons across the street rubble through the rubbish! and some are huge! pretty wild! but getting to be the norm on this
continent. have really enjoyed my break here. and the best part has been it's all been such
a surprise. Betty's bay, cape town, the beach house, cricket, table mountain, the perfect weather, the whole week...amazing!

well, a new adventure next week as we shove off to uganda with the CNN crew. should
be a whole new experience, crossing the rift valley! being a professional shooter for CNN!

hoping we all find fulfillment and purpose in 2012! enjoy!

xxoo
