Malakal...

Yesterday I arrived in Malakal, Sudan where I will be staying for the next few weeks as I attempt to learn Arabic. But before that I enjoyed a flying visit to the Rift Valley (Which I had heard of before last week, but I'm ashamed to say I could not have told you what continent it was on)...This is me, there:

Friday and Saturday was the journey from Nairobi to Malakal, during which I took some photos, such as this one of the town of Malakal from the air. The river there is the Nile if you're interested (come to think of it, it's the Nile whether you're interested or not):


And this one was supposed to be the moment we hit the ground, but it didnt really work:


And these, show you my accommodation for the next three and a half weeks, a tent with it's own power supply, and wireless internet (at certain times of day):




And that, my friends, is all I've got for now. Over and out...
