The group dynamics in "the truck" - which is our mobile, east African equivalent to "The Loft" - is going smoothly. Although, there are a few annoyances. The main one was from one of the Australian who feels it is her duty to tell everyone that what she is looking at is better than what they are (even though everyone is looking at the same thing) and then proceed to loudly describe what the animals are doing:
"Oh look everyone, the lion is washing itself like a cat"
That's because it is a fucking cat, woman!
(Just in case there is any doubt, I did not write "fucking catwoman", which brings up all sorts of lewd images of Michelle Pfieffer in a skin-tight leather cat costume, which is not appropriate for this family-oriented blog)
Even more interesting was when whatever cute animal baby was spotted. I didn't do a thorough investigation, but the "oohhs" and "aahhs" that came from the childless women on the truck were inversely proportional to the following:
a) The distance there boyfriend was standing from them on the truck
b) The distance between them and their boyfriend on the subject of marriage, kids and family
c) The amount of time left on their clock, so to speak
That's it for now...but here are some pix for those who still have to reach the boredom limit:
