My farewell to family and Hugh I found quite difficult was hard to holdback the tears I'm missing them so much already!!
My flights were fine. To all EgyptAir snobs I'll have you know the food was great (cheesecake for pudding - instant happy Katie!!). My flight was made much more pleasureable by meeting two girls on their way to meet family in Zimbabwe. Thank you Melissa and Trish for letting me tag along!! And yes my luggage arrived yeyyyyy!!
On my journey to Imire I have to say it is true there are no roads just potholes!! We were also stopped by police on the way - dodgy looking person I am!
Here at Imire it is just as beautiful as the photos. The sun is out , it's warm and the people are so kind and wonderful! Michael and Katherine look after things here. Michael in particular looks after us "vols" (volunteers). Jenny is also a volunteer here from Sweden and she is here for 6 weeks.
Well today I've been fishing, travelling on the back of a truck to feed rhinos and elephants, played volleyball with the local secondary school (yes you guessed it I didn't do Britain proad, sorry guys!) and I went for a trek around the park with Judy (Judy's husbands father was the founder of Imire) on two grey Arabs. Bit of a busy first day which was finished off with Hippo creeping round the reeds while everyone was trying to have a shower (showers are outdoor and hippos kill more humans than any other animal!!)!!
Anyhow I'll try and keep blogging, wifi and electricity can be very unpredictable here!! Lots of love to everyone xxxxx
