Hooray for Captain Spaulding: The Preface

Where can you see lions? Only in Kenya.

Well, and Tanzania, too. And I did. In other words, pictures from my safari trip are finally up on Flickr.

Many friends have asked me if the trip was worth it. Honestly, I don't know. It was fun and cool and all of that, but I'm pretty much bankrupt now and for the forseeable future. A zoo would have been cheaper, albeit nowhere near as awe-inspiring.

But I do get to cross "African safari" off of my 100 Things to Do Before You Die list. So there's that.

I'll blog about the trip in more detail in the coming weeks. Stay tuned for poetic, lyrical, breathtaking travel writing. Or at least descriptions of me drinking beer in various exotic locales.
