1:30 Archaeology Exam
4:00 Swahili Lesson
6:30 Dinner
7:30 Wildlife Conservation

•    Some students went to an agriculture farm today but I stayed at the camp to study. I reviewed my archaeology notes studying with Jackie for our exam this afternoon.
• We discovered that the electric fence is to keep out the wildlife and that the wildlife around here is ostriches! They came up close to the fence, they can be quite aggressive so we stayed back.
• "There are fever trees everywhere around here, almost like a forest. "Forest of Fever" - heehee, sounds like a bad disco song!"
• In the Swahili lesson I learned the alphabet and some simple phrases, it was neat.
• The professors don't stay with us for the entire time. Our courses run for different durations and start at different times. Today was our first wildlife conservation class, the Canadian professor had just arrived in Kenya today.

10 years ago today I was reveling in the fact that I was studying abroad!
