Something to Consider

 Hey everyone! While my adventures "in" Congo Kinshasa are still going well, I wanted to inform you of something else that was just brought to my attention (I told you I didn't want to bore you with lists of food every day) that relates to the nature of this blog. I just heard that there are plans being made to build a highway in Tanzania RIGHT THROUGH the Serengeti! This is destructive in so many ways- animals are at risk of dying or of losing their wild nature and the culture of Tanzania is threatened greatly as well. I would urge you all to check out www.savetheserengeti.org and join the effort to stop this terrible mess. An easier travel route (if the highway will even provide that) is not at all worth the absolute beauty of the Serengeti and all it offers to the world. Because this plan will threaten the culture of Tanzania, I thought I would share the news... and a way to help, with you. I apologize for getting sidetracked from the usual nature of my posts, but this issue is important and in conjunction with what I am trying to do with this blog.
