  1. A) That's a BIRD'S NEST?! What sort of birds live in a nest like that?

    B) The Kalahari Desert is real?! (Sorry, it's just that I've heard of these places since I can remember, but I've never "known" anyone who had actually BEEN there. Which begs the question, Where else have you traveled?)
