O Brother, Where Art Thou?


We've enjoyed spending the past couple weeks with Larkin's brother, Noel. He arrived from Boston, MA in time to take advantage of Tristan's October Break from school, and Larkin managed to get a break from teaching. So, we took off to Etosha, northwest Namibia (Kamanjab and Brandberg), and the coast. It was a great time.

Noel seemed to bring us luck at every turn. More lions than we have ever seen in Etosha. Singers at several of our evening meals. Pretty good success catching fish on the coast.

We've got the story of the trip posted in photo-form with captions on the Picasa site...feel free to link over and enjoy!
We ended this trip with the sober realization that Noel was the last of the three groups of family/friends to visit us in Namibia. It is always nice to see familiar faces, and we enjoyed sharing experiences with everyone. But, the year is winding down. Next year's Fulbrighters are starting to contact us with questions about their year in Namibia. Time to pack our bags!
