This leg of the journey was an after thought really, it seemed criminal to be so close, to have seen South Africa's other 2 natural wonders and not go to Cape Town for no. 3 We headed into the Joburg flight centre ( once again another great service from a young lady) and we were booked. 3 days and 3 nights staying at the Harbour Bridge Hotel. We bid our farewells to Lee-Ann and family as they all set of for school...(lee-Ann and Lauren came back and dropped us to...

Jo'burg The end of our safari adventure and we wait at the safari lodge for Lee-ann to collect us, a stay with her and her children for a few days.

Well anyway today was a chance to tick off some of the xxxxx species of mammals and xxxx species of birds that can be found in the pa...

Day 1: Safari Adventure So 5am meet at the safari club to begin our adventure, we had a relatively early night for a 4am get up....
