Pardon my absence, it has been days since my last confession. I have been in Africa this whole time writing posts on my Blackberry, but I have not sat still long enough to actually post. Fear not, the adventure is coming to an end next week. There is such a thing as too much vacation, but that’s a post for another time. For now, let’s recap the best of September:
