Journal Entry:
Slept in as late as possible. Feeling much better today but still decided to head for South Africa tomorrow (a week earlier than planed). At the travel agent I was told the flight is completely booked so I'm waitlisted. I'll go to the airport tomorrow and if I can't get on no problem I'll go to Limbé and climb Mt Cameroon after all.

Spent most of the day hanging out in a cafe reading. Not much of an Africa experience, but just the relaxing day I needed.
