So it's finally time to go home. Can't believe it's gone so quickly! We arrived in Johannesburg yesterday evening and I haven't really had much chance to explore. We're in the nice part of town, although some of the others went out last night to the really dodgy bits. The last week has consisted of lots of travelling through Botswana and northern South Africa. We went to Kruger on Monday which was cool, but really needs longer than a day to do it justice. We saw ...

Hi all,I jumped off a bridge yesterday. 3 times in fact. Once for a swing, once on a bungee jump (111 metres) and then another time on a massive cable slide. It was all done from the bridge joining Zambia and Zimbabwe, so we were tecnically in no mans land. The views of the falls were amazing. I'd never seen a rainbow go all the way round before yesterday!Anyway, am off for the final part of my adventure now. Botswana here I come!Sxx

Ah well, this is Africa. We've hit t...

Hello all, We'll I've left Moshi now and am back on the Acacia overland truck. We're currently staying at the Meserani Snake Park just outside of Arusha. Because of the Kenya situation I was one of the first to arrive and everyone else has been arriving in dribs and drabs. Everyone's really nice and the driver and guide, Paul and Musa, are lovely too. The snake park is cool. The owners of the campsite were into snakes so set up a little snake zoo. I saw them bei...
