Ride on the back of a motorcycle... *check*

Sooo like i mentioned yesterday, i got the ride on the back of a Boda Boda (motorcycle). it was the COOLEST THING EVER!! i always thought that i would be scary, but it was so fun! I decided that i would have no problem staying in Africa longer if i could just tour the continent via Boda Boda.

I was also very psyched that i got to go on this ride because it gave me a slight experience of what a safari might be like. As we were driving down the street i was looking at everything around me and a monkey jumped down from a tree and looked at me. This monkey looked a lot like Marcel from "Friends" and it made me happy to see some actual Africa wildlife since the only animals around here are chickens, goats, cows, and these HUGE stork lookin' birds.

Also this event also made me very excited about my bucket list and checking things off of it. So last night i sat down and created a bucket list journal where i can make my list and also write down my experiences completing the things on that list. I only have like 20 things so far, including driving across the country, reading the top 50 American classics, bungee jumping, and riding a mechanical bull among other things. The first thing i need to do when i get home tho is actually watch the movie "The Bucket List" since i have never seen it.

But i have also decided that since i started this blog to share with all of you the adventures of my life, i figure why does it need to stop when i come back from Africa. That's right... it doesn't! So even when i return to the states i will continue to update you on the attempts to complete bucket list items and do other ridiculous things that i feel completely necessary!

Also... update on my Europe adventure: Dublin is a no go since my cousin will not actually be at her house when i was planning on going there! So instead i will enjoy Rome! That's right London, Paris and Rome in 8 days! Who knows maybe i will find something else to cross off my bucket list while im there!

Well until then ill keep you posted... but i have only 3 days left in Jinja and im going to go make the most of it!
