Back to the Land of...
We're leaving Botswana permanently tomorrow. (I guess I'll have to change the name of this blog.) I still haven't posted about our trip to Vic Falls in September or our trip to Kruger Park this year. I will have to finish the posts I started once I get back to the States.
Now that we are leaving, I can think about all of the things I will enjoy about being back in the US. Here are the first few that come to mind:
-- High speed internet access at home!
-- Grocery shopping when I feel like it, even if it's 2 a.m. on Sunday!
-- Gyros!
-- Customer service!!!
-- Sci-fi channel!
-- Fast food that IS fast! (We waited for our sandwiches for 20 minutes yesterday.)
-- Houses surrounded by views instead of walls with electric fences!
-- Mexican food I don't have to make myself!
-- Good Chinese food! (sorry for all of the food references, it's lunchtime :)
-- Limes at the grocery store more than once a year!
-- High quality appliances!
-- Good pizza!
-- Houses that aren't made of concrete!
That's all that comes to mind at the moment. I'm sure I'll think of more later.
To be fair, here are some things I will miss about Botswana:
-- The people
-- Rooibos tea (also called red bush tea)
-- Inexpensive meals at good restaurants
-- Good wine that's low in price
-- Inexpensive, high-quality steaks

Interesting. I would not be so excited for coming back to the States for fast food and pizza, etc-all these are not good for you. You want to live in a concrete house, because they are good, durable and fire resistant. I mean I can think of a thousand reasons why I would go for a concrete house. Paper houses as i call them, are a fire hazard.
