Today if all goes well Mike will arrive in Dresden. And then next week we'll leave for Africa. The plan is to fly into Nairobi, do a 3 day safari, and then figure it out from there. Probably head to the coast of Tanzania and out to the islands there and hopefully get in some diving.
I have a history of traveling with Mike,
from scaring away monkeys in Ecuador

to acquiring black-market rice liquor in predominantly Muslim Indonesia
