Addis Ababa?

#6! Yay!

Kinshasa?

The #3 I'd never heard of. brenda and Gud kick geography ass. (note to self to recruit both for pub quiz night)

My best friend is going to Morocco in two weeks to be the personal doctor for a rich people bike tour there.

Also, I am eating a chunk of Extreme Dark Chocolate with mocha java chips, purchased at Alcatraz, the proceeds from which, go to fund the parks.

Speaking of African cities, did you all know that Eritrea is an Art Deco wonderland?

I want to have a drink here.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I have a hard time thinking of Casablanca (and Alexandria) as real places. Weird.
