Halloween South African style…..back to the park!
So it was Halloween …had an awesome weekend need I write any more…!!!
It’s been a nice week; of course I could no longer stay away from those elephants….back to the park I went for 4 days!!! I now leave the activity budgets to the new volunteers that come after me, this week I trialled a new activity budget and its working quite well, a lot more concentration needed…..less time talking to the guides…never been good at multitasking!
To be back at the park again it really was a nice few days I have shown the new volunteers how to use the new activity budget and told them everything I now about it and what I have learnt from it the last few weeks, a nice few days in the field, data entry up to date a written explanation of how to record the data and a new page in the project folder telling the new volunteer the progress of the A.B and what’s been achieved so far therefore…. It’s almost goodbye! I will go back to say my final goodbye’s next week, it was so nice to be able to go back and have time to leave the park knowing that what I did has been completed and all the information Is there waiting for the next volunteer! I know I will be back one day so next weeks goodbye will only be goodbye for a couple of years…I need to study fast!!
Today I cycled round the island for a while, as the birds sang in the trees and I found myself weaving in and out of little roads past houses and various people saying hello, I am not used to leisurely cycles normally I am zooming up and down muddy tracks appose to pedalling away slowly as the world goes by. It was a day not normal for me; I headed to the beach for a couple of hours, as I fell asleep in the sand with the sound of the waves!! A really nice day…in the sunshine!
