...continued from previous blog... It's absolutely impossible to capture anything about the spirit of our safari & how mad it was. I've described all of the sightseeing, but not much about the day to day madness of being on the truck for hours going delirious, or the freezing cold nights, or anything we really got up to. Here are a just a few of my memories from the safari: Playing football with Conor - any excuse to get the football out for a kick aroun...

We arrived yesterday and went on a sunset cruise down the Zambezi River, though I wasn't very well and so was not able to join in with the open bar on board!
