Well here we are half way through January, and a lot has happened around the world.
To start of the cruise liner that hit a rock, with 20 people still missing, my condolences if you have any friends or family affected.
South Africa, well where do I start, Cape Town been listed as top Murder city in the world, but that includes the Squatters and gang areas, then my worst is the poaching of Rhinos, SA parks claim more than 343 already in 2012, 2011 448 and in 2010 333, this is a sickening thought, I have posted a few gory links with Rhino poaching on face book.
Then in the southern part of South Africa is experiencing heat waves, and the northern part floods. Again links on face book too see.
Grand Circle Travel South Africa had a little get together in the beginning of the month, it was great to see all the trip leaders and to hear some of their stories, but scary to hear the resection is affecting everything. Next trip only in April but no confirmation!!!!
To all who traveled with me with OAT the last two years, thank you, I enjoyed being a part of your African experience, sharing stories and photos, many new lifelong friends were made, I hope we will stay in touch.
For all who know me and my hobbies the diving has not been good although the weather is great the wind and sea conditions have not, so no fish in fridge yet.
Being at home is great, spending time with family but now all are back at school and work, I miss being out there on the road.
I am having trouble with my bird blog, I think to many photos but hit over 200 species. But will try and play around and sort it out.
Well I have been contacted by another company and they have offered me a job for February 13 days I will keep all in the loop during and after, hold your thumbs and cross your fingers.
