Africa is huge!

Since I’ve been back in Colorado this week I’ve been getting lots of questions about how far am I from certain places in Africa (i.e. I’m heading to South Africa, how far is that from where you live?).  Tanzania is just south of the equator on the east coast of Africa (right about where the south east coast of the US is on this map).  Our wish list of places we want to visit in Africa is long, but we’re realizing how far many of these places really are; not to mention that travel is often more difficult and less reliable than travel in the US and Europe.  But really, that’s all part of the allure, isn’t it?
