That is the advice given in my guide to travelling round Africa:
"Do not joke with Immigration officials".
I'm flying out tomorrow. I'm going for 5 weeks.
And yet I've only just started reading the guide. Well done me.
I really should be packing right now. Or sleeping.
But no, I'm blogging. Silly, silly, silly.
Then again I probably won't update this blog more than a couple of times in the next few weeks. It's nothing personal, I just don't think there are many Internet Cafes open in the Serengeti (I assume - I haven't seen many zebras on Facebook but they probably hide their profiles to avoid being stalked).
I reckon I will have lots to say when I get back though.
Such as
- it's difficult to sleep in a tent knowing there are lions roaming outside. Or:
- ten things I could've brought with me which would've been more useful than the book Salmon Fishing In The Yemen. Or:
- what use is being a doctor if you don't have any medical equipment with you (actually, half my luggage will be simple medical supplies, just in case... well, I don't want to look silly.)
Enjoy working/studying everyone - I'm gonna have a great holiday!
(seeing as I've emptied my ISA to pay for it!)
