Goodbye Tanzania

Well its our last day in Tanzania and its pretty depressing. Next time I pack my stuff up it will be to make the long journey back to the US. The last 7 months have gone by way to fast. Last night to thank that staff a bunch of us cooked an amazing Italian dinner and it was the best I have eaten since I have been here. We had pasta, meatball, pizza, and bruschetta. Then the staff surprised us with ice cream, so I went to bed with a food coma last night but it was absolutely worth it.
The day after we got back from the Serengeti we went into the “big city” and did some shopping and I got my Tanzanite to make a ring when I get home! I’m pretty excited about it. We also received our exams back and so far I have A’s and B’s in all my classes so I can’t complain. We had debrief earlier today and said bye to a lot of the staff and spent about 20 minutes taking pictures, it was like the last day of high school all over again. 
One thing I will miss is being a Rhotia celebrity every time I would leave camp a bunch of children would know my name. One day Kristin was asked, whats your name? where are you from? who’s your president? and where’s Jessica? They all love me its very weird lol
6 of us went to Moyo hill even though we aren’t suppose to but we had to see it for the last time. So we sat and looked over the edge for a while. Then when we got back we went to Happy Days to have some drinks and get some food. We also played our pictionary game which is always entertaining.
When we got back we had a goat roast and sat around the fire and enjoyed saying good bye to everyone so it was a really awesome last day. Now it’s time for some grey’s and bed! Tanzania is the most beautiful place and I absolutely love it here, I think I will defiantly come back at some point!
