More than a year passed since I came back from my wonderful two-month long holidays in Africa (Kenya, Uganda, Namibia and South Africa) and I virtually made no progress in documenting that trip in reasonable form. I am afraid that the more I will postpone writing about it the more difficult it will become as my memories will fade away. Thus, I have decided to come up with the outline for the posts dealing with this subject, hoping that it will help me to start working on this project.
Here is the outline of the posts that I plan to write in near future:

Hmm, it seems that even if I would be writing one post a day (which is probably not feasible), it still would take me around 2 months to finish this project. So I guess realistically I can expect to have it finished in half a year or so. Well, better that than nothing.
