Roadtrip to Durban

I don't have any way of hooking up my camera but pictures will come soon.  Currently I am on a roadtrip with one of the coolest girls in the world (Kelsey) and we went from Port Elizabeth, to Chintsa, to Port St. Johns, and finally arrived at Durban two days ago. 
Today is Thanksgiving and so we are going to cook up a little Thanksgiving feast for us and the others here at the backpackers and bring a little American love to the table.  The night we got here we made rice krispies treats except they only have pink marshmellows and so it turned out kind of weird, but way yummy.  It's been raining, but we've had a blast, yesterday we went to a place called Taconula and I had the biggest pizza in my life it was as big as the table, between the four of us we couldn't finish it.   The other night we were going to bed and the boys knocked on our door and said, ladies, we're going down to the beach wanna come?  So we grabbed some bottles of wine and went down to the beach at 10 pm (usually my bed time), played near the water, and scared a bunch of white crabs that were all around the beach and just had a great time chatting and hanging out. 

I can't believe how blessed I've been in Africa, and here on this roadtrip.  I'm so thankful for so many things, my awesome husband who gave me total free reign for this roadtrip, my fantastic parents who are counting the days until they can make sure I'm safe back in America, my inlaws who are amazing and who I'll see in less than a week, and my extended family who I'll be able to see for Christmas (except for my Aunt Sara and Court, and that makes me sad). 
Thank you all for supporting me, reading along with me, and just sharing your love with me.  I would not be half the person I am without everyone I've met.


I am excited to see you all,
Amber Jane
