Remember the puppy...

He's growing. He's now about 8.5 months old.

Going to Sydney...

I'm going to Sydney for the 4th IAS Conference on HIV Pathogenesis, Treatment and Prevention. I arrive in Sydney on Saturday, July 21. The conference runs until Wednesday, July 25, but I am staying until Sunday August, 5. If anyone wants to have a nice vacation and SCUBA Dive the Great Barrier Reef, feel free to join. The more the merrier.

Camping in Mazabuka

We went camping Saturday in Mazabuka at the family farm of a friend, Cousin Rorry. We call him that because his cousin Darren introduced him as "my cousisn, Rorry" and it just stuck. Mazabuka is located in the Southern Province of Zambia about 175 km South of Lusaka. We camped on a working farm more than 2,500 acres in size with 1,600+ pigs, 500+ cattle, and various game animals like Impala and Kudu. They send more than 50 pigs a week to be slaughtered. You can also hunt game 6 months out of the year. It was a great time less than 2 hours outside of Lusaka.The view from the front porch of the main farm house.
