Busy, Busy

Ahmad and I have been very busy these last couple of weeks. He had several tests which of course were all scheduled the same week and I have been working a lot lately.


This is all in preparation for our trip to..........Malaysia!

We are going for two weeks of uninterrupted sun, sand, spicy food, and snorkeling/scuba diving.

Did I mention we are also going to do a couple of day trek through the Malaysian jungle? There are Asian tigers, wild boars, vipers, leopards, orangutans and even elephants. The likelihood of us actually seeing most of those animals is remote, as the jungle is huge and the animals are naturally skittish and hide deep in the jungle, but I can dream, right?

We will probably see lots of very large insects and a lot of leeches! Apparently, they are pretty much everywhere in the jungle and from all I have read, they are fantastic at jumpling onto you as you walk through the trails and then wriggling their way up to who know's where to attack themselves and drink. Sounds like fun, huh?
Kuala Lumpur is the capital and there is great diving in Malaysia with lots of turtles and sharks!
I hope we will have lots of interesting stories and photos to post after we get back....but until then we have two more months of work and school before we leave.
