AFRICA AINT FOR SISSIES

2/2/2019

We just finished playing an awesome festival and went back to the free room they gave us. We're about to crawl into bed when I happened to look up.  (I wish I didn't).  See that "little dot" in the upper left hand corner?

Oh. My. God.    let me get the zoom lens...

So this guy was right above our bed... He was the bigger than the size of my whole hand...  The problem was that the ceiling was about 10 feet off the ground, so a newspaper wouldn't work. 

I thought about throwing a pillow at it, but then it dawned on me that it could probably catch the pillow and throw it back.  And, I definitely didn't want to piss it off before I turned off the lights.  (Plus, he had two somewhat smaller cousins on the other side of the room).

We sort of had a staring contest.  We agreed that we wont mess with him if he doesn't mess with us.

There are a few things that would warrant a new hotel room here in Africa.  Roided up tarantula's that make their homes above your head isn't necessarily one of them.  Especially if it's midnight, when there are probably no other available rooms anyway. 

Obviously there are more important struggles going on in Africa than this guy watching me while I sleep.  So, we just check our privilege and thank God that we woke up alive the next morning.
