March 7 Back from Serengeti

There were lions! sooo amazing. When we got back thursday the internet was down and the power has been going in and out since then.
Highlights of Serengeti: Lions! and 5 cubs, and 4 leopards! and Black Rhinos in Ngorongoro Crater!!! They're my absolute favorite. ooo and a ginormus monitor lizard, and hippos fighting, and crocodiles, and jackals and a serval cat! Everything was amaaaazing. I've decided that I need to live here for a sizeable chunk of my life.
Today was our last non-program day in TZ. We went to the Karatu market and I bought way too many things but I was super proud of my bargaining skills, the men treated me like Mbogo (a Tanzanian), and talked to me in Kiswahili cuz I totally know my numbers, and I had no idea what other words they were saying, but Festo told me I was a very good bargainer. So I got more beautiful fabrics cuz they don't have such nice colorful ones in Kenya, I got a sweet machete, like a real tanzanian would use, not a stupid touristy one, and I got a sick barack obama belt.
This week is gonna be really stressful because I have TONS of work to do and finals in less than a week. eghhh
