Blog Posting While Utterly Exhausted

So. It has been 48 hours since we left and we JUST arrived. We have had MANY adventures. I will recount them in the morning once Andy and I have had the chance to sleep. I don't think I have ever been as tired as I am now! Left Joburg for Gabarone, then got on our flight to Francistown. When I have more energy, I'll recount the trip. Rest-assured, we are here, safe, and quite in love with our hotel, The Marang in Francistown, Botswana. I am in room 37 and Andy is in room 35. AND...by "room" I mean cottage, really. We are on the most amazingly landscaped area of F-town. We each have our own thatched-roof huts raised off the ground with 8-foot stilts. It is really magical. When I get my senses back (and once I've unpacked and arranged my clothing by color), I will give the full details. Best of all? We get to meet the kids tomorrow and we couldn't be more thrilled. Again, much to detail. Just wanted you all to know that our adventure has gone from the theoretical to the real. More tomorrow. MUST SLEEP. Erik and Andy

I knew you two had high positions...but even at night? So why the stilts? Are you near coastal water? Snakes? I'm guessing there is clear rationalle somewhere...and inquiring minds want to know! Tell the girls that many others send their greetings with you!
