Africa, Here we come!!

The itinerary has been changed because of all the pirate attacks in the Gulf of Aden. So, instead of going to Italy, Turkey, and Egypt, we are now going to Morocco, Namibia, South Africa, and Mauritius! We're going to AFRICA!!!!!!!! We are kinda bummed because now we can't see Giulia (our friend in Italy) or our sister, Kristina, in Turkey. But we are super excited because when's the next chance we're gonna have to go to Africa?

The reason we chose Semester at Sea in the first place was to be different and take "the road less traveled". Everyone can go see Italy and the rest of Europe but who can say they've been to South Africa or Namibia?? I'm guessing not a lot of people. As much as we were looking forward to being tourists in Europe, I think these changes allow for an even greater and richer experience (if thats even possible)! We can't wait to go it is going to be so much fun! Except now we have to figure out what to do in those countries now.....hmm...Safari/camping in the desert, camel rides, shark diving, we just don't know what to do.....
