Update #2 ... I'm still alive Descia has not cashed in on my life insurance policy yet !!
I finished my time in Cape Town, nice city, although a cute little Austrian Girl whom we befriended got robbed in the Hostel! We drank a few bottles of wine, petted some damn cheetahs.. there was some heavy petting and I wasn't sure if it was the cheetah's or me that was purring.. but then again.. that was alot of wine ;>....
From there the actual tour started. Spent alot of time on a bus, sleeping in tents so far. Drinking, eating and more time on a bus. Have seen quite a bit. Did a bit of Canoeing in Namibia on some damn river I don't remember , drank beer, shots and played some pool.
Saw alot of sand.. walked up a damn 350 foot high sand dune.. (tallest one in the area was around 400 metres (1200 feet high). Walked a desert with a bushman who was entertaining as hell but showed yah how to survive in a desert (for a few days anyway).
Drove through Wavisbay.. (while Angelina Jolie had her baby)... guess she's gonna go on a bender now.. might have to swing by her resourt and join the party.
Actually did not do any sand boarding.. instead decided that jumping out of a plane with a couple of australian chicks would be entertaining.. and yes it was.. =)
Orson, we are slowling making our way to Vic Falls =), was hoping to get some white water in but I've heard that the water levels may be a bit too high this time of year. Am hoping that the water levels are going to drop by the time we get there (2 weeks) but might have opt out .. maybe bungy jump or something like that !
Between here and there .. going to go to the Okavango Delta .. see some wildlife.. (am going to buy a fishing rod and try and catch some tigerfish)... and who knows what else !!
Anyhow, still have a few more emails to fire off.. =), really have to get some of my damn pictures downloaded as well =) have some good shots!
CK, don't work too hard ;>.. and don't give Descia any ideas about more schooling...
As for my seat being kept warm..... I'm pretty sure the stench will have wafted away by the time I get back !!
Take care all !!

Orson I'm heading my way slowly but surely to Vic Falls, where we'll be wrapping up the trip. I was hoping to
