We're packed and ready to go on our African Safari. We've seen photos and blogs from people who did the same trip last year; if we have anything near the same experience it will be phenomenal!
Unfortunately, Franklin doesn't seem to care too much for poking his nose into suitcases, although he senses that something's up. So, instead of a cat picture this time, we'll just post this:
Packing has been a bit of a challenge since our luggage allowance is much smaller than it would be on a luxury cruise (although the lodges we are staying at certainly would merit formal wear in other circumstances from what we've seen of them), but many of the Christmas gifts we exchanged had a 'travel light' theme, so we're managing quite well on our two canvas duffel suitcases. Great idea, Bruce - boy, do they fit a lot of stuff, even hiking shoes!
So the cameras are loaded with empty media cards (and we have 8x more extra capacity in the camera bag), the video recorder is clear and ready, and we're starting to get itchy to move. We'll be on our way mid-afternoon today.
As always, we hope you enjoy travelling along with us via the blog. Look for the daily (unless we're too tuckered out!) updates.
