It seems so short a time ago I was declaring that there was 2 months to go before Shirley an I would be off to the land of the lion ,the springbok, the rhino, just to name a few ,to my surprise ,when I looked at the calendar today we have just 23 day to go , simply amazing.

It is now just 2 months til we don our safari gear and head to Africa to discover again the wonders of the world that can be found outside of Australia. Shirley and I would like to invite you to join us by following our adventures on this blog. There will be no driving so the love will not be strained as it was in Italy . We hope that you will enjoy it and would love to read your comments, so get ready for another tour where fun is the number one
