ENTRY 42
There is one good thing. Today the air was cool, and I could smell the distinct smell of salt, which was strange since the nearest water was more than two days behind us and, as far as I knew, the closest sea was even further than that. Now, I am not one who questions blessings, but that was a little too much just to accept.
Pandorica got over her disappointment of leaving her family and was now actually looking forward to making the trip. I guess all it took was for her to find out where we were going to make her happy. The only thing I am concerned with about her is that she is starting to show. Now, I don't know how long the gestation period is for a Zartoon and human mating, but I am sure that it isn't the nine months human pregnancies are.
Night came a couple of hours ago, and Pandorica didn't want to stop walking, even after we couldn't see a foot in front of us. Finally, I talked her into stopping and taking a rest, after I told that if she didn't, she would not be able to enjoy the falls when we got to them. So, I picked some scrub brush, built a fire and we decided to make love and then get some sleep under the Zartoon moons.
