		<description><![CDATA[Africa was shockingly expensive.  We expected that the touristy activities would be expensive but we underestimated the degree to this expense.  True, eating in Africa can be cheap, lodging too, but that&#8217;s about where the cheapness ends.  We definitely could have spent less here, but we wanted to do the &#8220;big&#8221; Africa things: safari, Kilimanjaro, mountain gorillas.
A reminder of how all this works.  Every dollar amount represents how much the two of us, combined, spent on the average day in a given country.  Airfare to and from the continent (very expensive to get to Africa) is included in transportation in the totals line and aren&#8217;t applied to any specific country.  As always, visa fees are ...

		<description><![CDATA[Keeping this blog alive through Latin America took minimal effort beyond just writing up the posts.  We might pay a few extra pesos for a hotel with wifi where we could upload photos overnight or need to spend a few hours here or there sitting in an internet cafe to make sure things were running smoothly, but all and all it was easy to find decent internet connections and the electricity was pretty regular.  Africa however was a whole new ballgame.
Starting in South Africa we were shocked to find some of the worst connection speeds we&#8217;d experienced on this trip.  Ecuador, Bolivia, and even Guatemala, all had better connections than what we generally found in South Africa. ...

		<description><![CDATA[We made it!  Just arrived in Cairo after a day of police escorts and speed bumps, truly it was an adventure!  All is well.  Driving into Cairo we could see the Pyramids of Giza at a distance and it finally hit us- we&#8217;ve completed the epic Cape to Cairo overland adventure!
In celebration we&#8217;re off for some margaritas and tex-mex at Chili&#8217;s- the first hispanic food we&#8217;ve seen since December. Don&#8217;t judge, after being charged by gorillas, boogie boarding class 5 rapids, bribing cops in Nairobi, climbing Kilimanjaro, hunting with lions, eating all sorts of crazy food and surviving some harrowing experiences we need unlimited chips and salsa. Yum!  
Any interest in overlanding?  Take the poll on our sidebar and ...
