Prend-ca

OK. Since last time, I spent the rest of a lovely week in the northern city of Ngaoundere. Very Muslim, very cool. Ive been doing a lot of work for my research on diamonds. Then we went to the Extreme North on a four day excursion. We camped and went into a game park. Saw giraffes, monkeys, lion tracks. Moderately exciting. Then we came back and I got food poisoning and three other stomach problems (viruses, bacteria, all the good stuff) Been basically out of commision for a couple of days (but it wasnt cholera). We have since returned to Yaounde using the same two-day bus ride, although I was asleep for the vast majority of it. On thursday, I head to South-Eastern Cameroon to do research that has never been done before: On diamond deposits (possibly larger than those in South Africa). It may be difficult to update in the coming weeks, but fingers crossed, you'll get a gout of my biznizes from time to time.
