Jetlag
Thursday, July 5, 2007 at 02:38AM I returned yesterday from three weeks out on safari in Tanzania, and I had only about 1 hour to say hello to Leslie and Christian, take a shower, shave and head out for a Fourth of July celebration near our house. I needed something to keep me awake until a normal bedtime hour, otherwise it would take me about a week to get back to my local time schedule.
I am sifting through about a week's worth of emails, which is much less than it used to be. I can now check my emails and surf the web while out on safari, thanks to newly erected cell phone towers in the middle of the Serengeti, as well as at the top of Ngorongoro Crater. I wasn't able to get my Blackberry phone working on their Celtel GPRS data service, so I had to purchase a local Nokia 6233 mobile phone to get me up and going. So now I am able to check emails from most locations when I am out on safari. Yippee!
