ZIMBABWE here I come!!!

Hey everyone
It's 7 pm right now and we're leaving for Zimbabwe exactly midnight. We want to get to the border by the time it opens (6 am) and we want to be the first people there so we don't have to wait in line. We wanted to go white water rafting on the Zambezi River but apparently they have cancelled all trips because the rapids are too dangerous. Hopefully by the time we get there, they will re-open the place.
I drove a manual car today! Well just for a few minutes, then I gave up cuz i kept on stalling the car when trying to park on a hill. Otherwise, I think I was doing pretty well up to that point.
I have been trying to post up my pics but this internet connection is so slow and I'm too impatient to wait for so long =)
There's this one East Indian dude who smells really bad. Not from a curry smell, but more like a BO, haven't showered in a long time and every oriface of his body stanks so badly kinda smell. Anyways, he mentioned that we should have one big gigantic tent for the 4 of us so then we don't take up space in the car for his tent. I quickly shut that idea down!!! I'd rather have another chance of getting molested like in Swaziland than not be able to breathe!
Don't worry, he doesn't know my blog site so he won't read this. But for those who know who i'm talking about, you know what I'm talking about!
I have news from back home! My brother bought a house and now i have a new room to use! I'm going to turn it into a games/dance/guest bedroom. It's going to have all of my bro's playstations and nintendos, big mirrors so I can see myself while dancing, and a bed for those who want to sleep over at my house =) Apparently he bought the new Wii game and his gf bought the new Xbox so I can have all his old games. We rented PS 2 here in Sizanani for a couple of nights and I totally rocked everyone's asses.
I am going to stay in London and stay at Krista's place for a bit. Then travel to amsterdam to visit my family. I think I already told you guys that. If I have a chance, I'm going to visit the two Dutch girls I met here and possibly my pretty German boys!!! It was so weird to say goodbye to your close friends when you know that you may not see them again.
Anyways, so as you may have realized, this is just me rambling because I'm too psyched about Zimbabwe and I had nothing else to do tonight except wait another 5 hours until we get into our rental Nissan ??Almero?? for a another 5 hour wait until the border, then another day's worth of driving to Victoria Falls. haha... fun eh??
PS- Don't laugh when you hear me talk for the first time ok?? I have started rolling my RRRR's like eveyrone else and instead of saying "eh??" at the end of a sentence like typical Canadians, I say "nehh??" like a black South African.
Hopefully you get to see some pictures from my trip to Zimbabwe soon!
