I am back in Dubai after almost three weeks in Tanzania -- three weeks that included a mountain-climbing guide backed by armed Somali poachers, campsite-trampling elephants, a nightfall vehicle breakdown in Maasai-warrior country, and a serious brush with altitude sickness.

Don't worry though, everyone is fine. Actually, some the Somali poachers didn't fare too well but they had it coming...

I’ll try to post pictures and a more complete account tomorrow.
