Hello everyone,

Talk about middle of nowhere!!! We're finding it difficult to upload our Safari photos due to the fact that internet access in Swaziland seems to be extremly slow. So when we get to Durban on sunday/monday we will do it then. Its a big city so hopefully it will have fast internet.

Swaziland is very african. A cross between 1st & 3rd world. The markets are amazing but seeing crippled beggers on dusty street corners is sad. Also seeing police walking around with machine guns is kinda wierd too!

Forgot to mention that it hit 37oC while on Safari and during mid summer it can hit 47oC. Thats hot.

Hopefully we'll get the photos done by monday 23rd.

A big thank you for all your emails and messages including 'Happy Birthday Gemma' messages. Dont forget mine (Darren) is on the 31st of October. THATS THE 31ST OF OCTOBER :o)

Please keep the messages coming as we love reading them. We're Quad Biking all day tomorrow through dust & mud. Then stoping for lunch with a real Swaziland family. More riding then a Braai (BBQ) in the evening. We're gonna get very muddy (just like 4x4ing Sam!) Then Saturday we're caving with a natrual hot spring and loads of pizza and drinks afterwards.

Lots of Love Darren & Gemma xxx
