Oh the internet!

We are encountering difficulties setting up wireless internet at our new home, due to us owning a Mac and not a PC.  The one company that offers a connection in our area of the bush has yet to encounter a Mac locally (despite the packaging on the modem promising that it is compatible with a Mac operating system).  So we are temporarily stalled.  Which is a shame, because we have hundreds of pictures already :) Each day, simply from our veranda overlooking the river, we encounter at least 3 new (to us) species of bird.  On the drive to our home we came across elephant, giraffe, dik dik, impala, zebra, wart hog etc.  We have enjoyed watching the vervet monkeys stroll the length of the river, and have taken great pleasure in watching our Masai neighbors accidentally stumble upon elephant (on numerous occasions), which subsequently sends them into a panicked retreat.  Pretty humorous if you consider their reputation for being fierce warriors.

We are pretty resolved to give up on attempting to coax our Mac into accepting a Windows program... today we may purchase a PC.  Expect pictures shortly!
