Exciting News

However much we enjoy travel, sometimes a change is really is as good as a holiday. Elizabeth has re-vamped our website and we think it show-cases David's images well, and shows a new professional look with space for YOUR comments. We also have a facility in place should you wish to purchase any of David's images.

Made holiday plans 2013? We have managed to secure another two tents in the Masai Mara as our initial quota was taken by a group from Australia and England immediately we opened bookings. If you are keen to join us from 17 - 24 August in the Masai Mara Kenya please contact me immediately.

David and I had a wonderful time in Dullstroom and after extremely warm weather David had the mist we hoped for. We managed to fit in some good long walks, wonderful drives and illusive mist.

We next travel down to the north coast of Kwa-Zulu Natal which will be a welcome change and have spontaneously booked a trip the the Kalagadi at the end of February which will be another 'remember-when' trip. We often traveled there with parents and children and look forward to seeing the beautiful dunes, animals and new facilities.

In March we visit the Free State for a weekend of cosmos and landscapes and April of course shows the Eastern Free State dressed in Autumn. 

Another reminder that the Mara bookings close soon. For enquiries and bookings please contact me. Please make comments on the website if you think the change is great.

Weekend Away

It is always a treat to leave the city for a weekend in the countryside. David and I leave for Dullstroom this weekend and look forward to some quiet time and beautiful scenery.

Of course the photographers look forward to mist. I look forward to mist too, simply so I can have a brisk early morning walk, come back and light a fire make some coffee and then sit and read a book, write a poem or simply stare into the flames.

We are hoping the yellow arums are still blooming, but failing that the landscapes are always spectacular and beg for someone to capture the moment.

More about the trip later.

A reminder: Out tour to the Masai Mara is nearly fully booked. Have you thought of booking yet? Please contact Anne-Marie should you wish to know any detail.
