Hi interlings! This is Amy Beth’s friend Kelly.

As you know, Amy Beth is out traveling the world. Well, maybe not the world just the country of E&ypt. She doesn’t have access to the internet right now but has asked me to post some updates. I spoke on the phone with her this morning about what she’s been doing. Get this though, she didn’t just share her experiences with me in a normal conversation; she listed them. Yes, a numbered list. Three points to be exact. Lists happen to be a favorite way of sharing details for Amy Beth.

So without further ado, I give you Amy Beth’s most recent adventures…in list format:

1. She saw two real, live octopi! You must understand her fascination with sea creatures. She loves, loves, loves all things aquatic. I didn’t get many details about the experience only because her excitement kind of overtook the conversation.  Even though our talk lasted only a mere 8 minutes and 41 seconds Amy Beth probably mentioned this event a good half dozen or so times. {So after I wrote this I went back to find that oh-so-special post of Amy Beth confessing her love for Shamu only to find the video is long gone! I did find this one though!}

2. The group has been staying in a monastery for the past couple of days. Amy Beth was curious about internet access and decided to ask if it was available. All she received in return were blank stares. She tried to describe MinSoFab but they couldn’t even grasp the concept of the internet. (Hence the reason I am writing and not Amy Beth). Can you just imagine trying to explain a pink, polka-dotted blog to someone who has never even heard of the internet?

3. And her last and final point was that Cousin Cate was staying in a monastery. This alone was the cause of much laughter in the conversation. If you don’t know Cousin Cate, I think you would find the current situation pretty hilarious by reading this post and maybe this video. There is also a great video of Amy Beth and Cate in a certain 24-hour superstore describing how to catch a man. Unfortunately, I can’t find it but I’m not giving up.

Although, I can show you a little history of Amy Beth’s love for all things aquatic and Cousin Cate’s quest for the perfect date…

Hope you enjoy!!
