From AA to ZZ

Greetings from Lusaka, Zambia. Yes, after a couple weeks of sleeping under 4 hours a night, losing 5 pounds, and general non-stop work either at WCC, house 1 2 or 3 (too bad only one of them is mine), i finally got to relax with 36 hours of travel and a doubling, possibly tripling, of my yearly cholesterol intake. Internet is pretty good here though about $2/hour, a little pricier than similar places. Maybe it's just the downward spiral of the dollar.

Some younger guy in AMS asked me if i had any tips for travelling long distances in a plane. He was on his first overseas voyage, a 12 hour flight to Hong Kong. Am i supposed to have some special knowledge by this point?

Lusaka is ok, but so far Kampala has been my favourite African city. Of course i've not been here long enough to make a real determination.

I fear i will ramble too much more should i continue this post.
