Stuck in Frankfurt...

After numerous planes, airports, and layovers, we are stuck in Frankfurt. We left Friday morning, and I feel like I can't remember when that was. It has taken a while to get here.
Tired, dragging, and dying to be finished traveling, we found out that our Air Namibia flight was postponed until tomorrow morning because they needed to replace an engine.
Luckily, the airline put us in a nice hotel in Frankfurt, and we are able to relax and sleep (and shower!) after 36 hours of travel.
Only one more 10 hour flight to go...
But I guess this is just how it is when you travel to Africa, or other exciting places. I'm actually really enjoying the delay. The spontaneity and unpredictability add an element of adventure, and I'd much rather be experiencing unpredictability in a hotel room in Germany than at 35,000 over the Sahara Desert.
Hopefully we (along with our missing bags) make it to Africa tomorrow!

Getting Excited for Africa!

We are off to Africa this week! With monster layovers, back to back ten hour flights, and time changes, it takes two and a half days to get there. But we are too excited to even care. While there, we will be attempting to keep up our travel/hunting blog. (Personally, I read a whole lot of hunting stuff on the internet, and I've never heard of any instantly updated hunting blog, so this should be a unique and exciting experiment.)

To help us get even more pumped for the trip, we are posting some pictures taken by our favorite photographer, Bobby Earle, who photographed our wedding. He recently went to Africa and has posted some sweet photos. (bobbyearle.com)

We couldn't be more excited. I've been practicing with my rifle and listening to the Lion King soundtrack all week... Oh yeah.

Euro-Video!

CheyAnn and I spent some time putting this video together, with photo and video highlights from our trip to Paris and Amsterdam. Blogspot has a size limit, so with some painful cuts, our two-week dream trip has been condensed to 8 awesome minutes. Please let us know what you think. Thanks for watching!
