INTO AFRICA
It’s hard to settle down after such a fantastic holiday earlier this year to Antarctica and South America where I so enjoyed seeing and photographing the wildlife and landscapes, so I am now booked to go to Southern Africa in September on a small group tour with Peregrine Adventures.
The tour starts in Cape Town then heads up the west coast through wine country on its way to Namibia, with its photographic orange sand dunes, outstanding games reserves and the Himba people. We’ll be visiting several game reserves there, including Etosha where we will spend each of the three nights there at different watering holes (animal watering holes that is, not pubs or bars).
It wasn’t until I started researching that I found that the best time for game viewing in this area is before the rains come as the animals have to come into the waterholes.
Then it’s on into Botswana and the Okavango Delta and Chobe before finishing up the tour in Livingstone, Zambia. I’ve already visited Niagara Falls some years ago, Iguazu Falls in January and now I will conclude this tour by seeing Victoria Falls (I’m obviously going for the trifecta when it comes to seeing these amazing natural wonders!).
I’m not sure what internet access will be like, probably non-existent in most areas, but I intend to blog this journey too.
