February 5
Our flight out of Nairobi was supposed to be around 7:30 but ended up being closer to 9:00. 8 hours and 50 minutes later, here I am on February 5th, typing in the Air Canada "preferred" lounge.
We've bought books, are charging the Ipod, and I can't wait to use one of their private rooms for a snooze. We're almost home, and looking forward to seeing you all. Everybody I showed my Calgary Zoo pictures to (on my IPod) LOVED them, they loved seeing African animals in Calgary :) And some had heard of, but never seen, bears/cougar/etc.
Oh. Dad. One of our guide's, Justin, LOVES old-time country. His glove-box was filled with Kenny Rogers, Emmylou, Hank Williams, a couple others I recognized as people you like but don't remember the names right now.
The first thing I'm going to do when I get home is unpack, pass out gifts, and take Bosco for a walk. The first thing Trent is going to do is call his mom & dad and grandma. We both have to clear out our emails - not looking forward to that!
Alright, well, it was an amazing trip, and Les was an amazing leader. I'm looking forward to someday leading a trip to the same area, if given a chance.

Hey Jodene,
Thank you so much for sharing your journey with the world. It sounds as though you had an incredible trip and saw all that you went to see. I cannot wait to see your pictures.
Welcome Home... back to the wilds of Canada.
