After 40 hours flying from NYC-Dubai-Nairobi-Kilamenjaro-Zanzibar, we finally arrived here on this little island. It is beautiful and I've already had a chance to explore a little bit and have found a lot of things that I want to do and see. This morning we went snorkeling in the Indian Ocean, saw lots of coral and pretty fish and what not, and it was amazng to say the least. Then we had a lunch of mango, pineapple, and bread with nutella on an island near where we snorkeled. So, just an ordinary Monday for me..... Anyways, I don't have much time to write but just wanted to say a quick hello and I'm alive. I'm afraid I won't have a lot of internet and phone time, so if I'm slow to respond I'm sorry!!!! I found out today that I will be swimming with dolphins on Friday, my birthday, so thats pretty exciting. What a way to spend my 23rd. Tomorrow we leave on a safari to the Southern part of the main island for a few days to study butterflys among other things. I hope you are all finding this message well and I will write again as soon as I get a chance!
much love,
laura

How in the world will anyone ever be able to top swimming with dolphins on your birthday? I think for mine I'm going to La Campana for my free birthday meal--pretty much the same as your day...I loved reading what you've already been up to! Eat as much pineapple as you can (I will eat it vicariously through you)...I love you!
Laura...WOW...swimming with dolphins on your birthday, how fun! We are so glad you are having this adventure! Enjoy your day and know we will be thinking of you!!! Much love, Mama
Laura,
Glad to hear you made it safely. Talked to your bro and when he said you were flying through Dubai I was impressed. Any good plane riding buddies?
Hey there! Great to hear from you! Love the idea of dolphins on your birthday. Who gets to say they went on Safari for a few days in the middle of Feb.??!! Can't wait to hear about it!
