Uh oh...
I think we have Africa Withdrawal Syndrome.

We've been creating perfect nuisances of ourselves, talking non stop about Africa, bugging everyone to go for sundowners, and drinking lots of G&Ts.

(ironically, in Africa, all we wanted was local food like laksa and meepok towards the end)

Some symptoms

1) Listening non stop to African music - Ladysmith Black Mambazo on the stereo now; G plays Mahotella Queens on his iPod at nights to snooze; Youssou N'Dour is on your favourites list..

2) Urge to drink G&T at 7 pm - sundowners

3) Reading books about Africa

4) Wailing every few hours "I missss africa...."

5) Engaging in loong conversations about the townships, the people and how we can *engage* the people and culture more..

6) Opening and reopening the jpeg files - all 2.3 GB - of Africa photos

7) plotting to return

But the syndrome is still sub clinical, haven't broken out into a rash as yet.
