two very different realities

As I stuffed myself with an amazing assortment of colorful, rich and delicious foods on Thursday, and as I sat in the stands later that evening with 80,000 others watching our beloved Kansas City Chiefs throw the football up and down the field, my mind couldn't help but drift back to Africa. In fact, the name of my blog is still fairly appropriate...Gloria in Africa.

My reality is worlds apart from the one I dipped into just a few short weeks ago.
