World Cup Fever - catch it…and freeze

Today was the day we sadly had to leave the Idube Lodge and continue on with our journey to the World Cup! We were able to still get on the morning game drive for one last go-around with the animals, and I’m certainly glad we did, because it was a damn good one. We were driving for long...

Day 17... Last Day in Cape Town...

Woke up at the crack of half past twelve again to see the only good day of weather I had seen since my first day in town... It would have been a good day for Table Mountain or Robben Island, but I had no time for that kind of thing... I was flying out that afternoon at about 5:00, so I had...

In case you forgot, it’s winter here

We woke up today to find that the temperature had dropped like a rock. It was a stark reminder that though the calendar reads June, the season is winter down here. We bundled up and got in the vehicle for the morning game drive, which today, began with elephants munching on some trees nearby. ...

Days 15 and 16... Quiet days, and busier evenings...

As with every other day, I got up at 12 and had a breakfast... The Breakfast Special at The Castle is 12.50 Rand (about $1.75) and is a full breakfast... Even locals think it's cheap... It usually finishes at 11:30, but as I was staying there, so Naadia gave me some grace. Played Zaid in a...

Roads? Where we’re going, we don’t need...roads….

Wow. Where to start? Today was incredible. Our agenda was laid out for us yesterday, so we knew that today would consist of a 3-hour morning game drive, breakfast, a 1-hour bush walk, football match, lunch, a 3-hour afternoon game drive, dinner, football match. This is a life I wouldn’t mind...

Safari Day 1, Part 2

I missed the 2nd half of New Zealand-Slovakia, but apparently it was a hell of a finish. Lunch was excellent, continuing the theme of awesome meals (plus they catered to my gluten allergy, bonus!). The main dish was prawns and mussels over rice along with some other meats and cheeses plus...
