Beard watch: See Josh's beard grow!

In honor of the "outback-y" nature of the honeymoon, Josh has decided to go native--ie shave his head and grow a beard. Check here for an e-flipbook.

Day 2: In orangutan sanctuary, Borneo.


Day 12: In rickshaw, Mae Sot, Thailand.



Day 17: Kruger National Park










Day 37: Nairobi. Now he is REALLY starting to look like a caveman.













Day 52: Stonetown, Zanzibar, Tanzania. Grizzly Adams to the max.



Alas, at Day 52, Susan *strongly* advocates for a shave, threatening to end all 'honeymoon-related activities' until some trimming has taken place. Alas, Josh's dream of seeing what will happen to him when he tries to return through Australian immigration with a foot long beard will be no more.

THE UPSHARIN
(if you don't know what this is and you are still actually reading this website, send us an email and we'll send you an explanation. But we'll guess that by now, everyone's skimming pretty quickly).

All trimmed - now Josh can have his wife back

Epilogue... A few weeks later, Susan once again could not deal with Josh's delightfully thick and brillo-y beard. Just before leaving Jo'burg, Josh entered the bathroom bravely armed only with a razor and emerged an hour later sporting the face of a twelve-year old boy.

Note to self...never try to shave a three-week beard with a razor without first trimming with a scissor or electric trimmer.
