Kate's Travels: Shopping! Shopping! Shopping!
http://katelogantravels.blogspot.com/2008/10/shopping-shopping-shopping.html
Thursday, October 30, 2008. Every Sunday the parking lot of one of the strip malls in town become an authentic African handicrafts market. For anyone traveling to Zambia in the future, this is the Arcades Sunday Market. It wouldn’t have been proper for me to take pictures of the market and it would have out-ed me as a sucker in future bargaining deals. So…let me do my best to paint a picture of the scene. October 30, 2008 at 4:42 PM. Everyone sounds so friendly. November 2, 2008 at 10:16 PM. Cape Town: t...

Kate's Travels: November 2008
http://katelogantravels.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 10, 2008. Sunday – October 25: Today is another day full of things to do. There’s nothing like entertaining people that are briefly in town to get me out of the hotel and serve as the impetus to complete some of the suggestions in the guide book. It’s also a great catalyst to hang out with new friends. On today’s agenda: the Arcades market and a visit to Chaminuka. Knowing my love cheese, the tasting made my day. Despite the fact the tasting happened on a full stomach, just like Jell...

Tuesday, November 4, 2008. Another three day weekend! Friday, October 24 – Today is Zambian Independence Day and thus, I do not have to work…again.

Kate's Travels: Nudge, Nudge, Nudge. Sorry I'm so behind!
http://katelogantravels.blogspot.com/2008/10/nudge-nudge-nudge-sorry-im-so-behind.html
Thursday, October 30, 2008. Nudge, Nudge, Nudge. Sorry I'm so behind! Ok I’m way behind again, so let me catch you up as to what’s been keeping me so busy…. Anyway….thankfully, crappy African television decided to play nice on Saturday by showing “Shrek 3” and “Because I Said So” on Saturday morning. So yes, I spent Saturday morning in bed watching TV. : ). By 1 pm I decided to go down and hang out by the pool and read Three Cups of Tea. That lasted for about an hour because it was so hot! Exploring a ne...

Kate's Travels: Lilayi Game Park
http://katelogantravels.blogspot.com/2008/11/lilayi-game-park.html
Tuesday, November 4, 2008. Basically, Lilayi is like a small resort/hotel with a lot of land, which means…gam. We arrived shortly before lunch and had time to check out the grounds around the lodge before heading out. The first picture you see is a hut at the lodge selling a few curios. The second picture is the largest aloe plant that I've ever seen. They have these everywhere, but that's the biggest one yet. It puts the aloe plant I have in my office to shame.

Kate's Travels: Sketchy to the max.
http://katelogantravels.blogspot.com/2008/11/sketchy-to-max.html
Monday, November 10, 2008. Sketchy to the max. While I have been working most of the weekend on catching up on this blog, I'm breaking my rule about chronology to tell you about a disturbing part of my weekend. I went to the Arcades Market on Sunday for a final round of shopping. While Caroline and Justin were meeting up with me later, I decided to get an early start and treat myself to coffee and reading my book at the Mimosa Cafe. I referenced this cafe in my Chaminuka. Will we have to have the SRMUN m...
