You're a fool to wait for your lucky break

So. It's 6:15 in the morning and I'm sat in the Delta lounge at Miami airport, surrounded by tracksuited, bejewelled boomers and Blackberry-clicking, jumbo coffee-swilling road warriors. Nizlopi are on the iPod, doing an admirable job of drowning out the *giant* tv in the corner (CNN not Fox, thankfully). The title comes from the lyrics to their beautiful 'Wash Away'.

As you can see, it's been a tough few days. I'm flying back to Johannesburg today/tomorrow and I'm speaking again on Monday. Perhaps the jetlag has left me a little lightheaded (and that this, therefore, will be one of those hippy posts I live to regret) but the last few days have left me bouncing up and down with excitement at the opportunity, beauty, vibrancy and abundance that this little planet has to offer us all.

Oh, and giant jellyfish are invading Japan.

More soon (hopefully compos mentis this time)…
