During fall break, what is a great way to spend it? Visiting Africa for the first time, and camping (also for the first time) in Botswana!!
Just FYI, you need sunscreen. I don't care who you are. It's stupid hot, and the sunshine is killer.
The camping spot was really nice, and included a men's and women's bathrooms and SHOWERS? And this was just our personal space and didn't have to share with other groups.
4-star camping for my first time sleeping in a tent - I am forever spoiled.
As part of our adventure, we went out on a hike to Moremi Gorge.
Let me tell you, it was more than just a walking trail, and I LOVED it. We were climbing rocks, jumping creeks, and doing this number:
There was also this sign.
The whole thing was beautiful, and there were plenty of locations to chill and take photos.
And then the moment we were waiting for...
For the rest of the trip, I mostly just hung out in Wes' dorm while he was in class (boo), or we ate food, which is always fun.
And that's when I found my most favoritest (it's so good I have to use a fake word) food in the whole world:
Chicken pies and fat cakes.
AND THIS WAS BREAKFAST MADE HEAVENLY.
Best of all, though, was spending time with Wesley.

Well, and the layovers in Cairo's airport (which, btw I highly recommend Egypt Air).
This was my view as the plane took off from Cairo on the way back to France:
Mother. Flipping. PYRAMIDS.
