Soweto

















Below Dave Packham and Glen were asking the tour guide where they get the materials for the shanties from. He told them that they get whatever they can from the side of the road or wherever they can find it. 70% of people in this part of Soweto are unemployed. Posted by Picasa

This georgeous little boy in Soweto asked me to take a picture of him on my camera -look at his pose! Posted by Picasa

On Safari at Mabula Game Lodge
These are pictures of us on safari at Mabula Game Reserve in South Africa. Horse riding through the wild game was awesome although we were a little close to that crocodile for our liking! Ragani wanted to keep the baby giraffe (or the baby rhino for that matter) but the respective mums had other ideas...








More safari pics - check out our 'tent' - equipped with a bathroom at the back with bath, running hot water and flushing toilet!
The walls don't block the noise of the animals creeping round at night, I am convinced an elephant was right outside in the early hours of the morning!
