I picked up the Africa bug early in life as a child when I visited Kenya with my parents. I fell in love with the people, the beautiful and varied landscapes and the incredible diversity of flora and fauna that is to be found there. After that one trip to Africa in the early 70's, I never thought I'd get another chance to return - and perhaps to other countries on that huge continent as well. So, when I was asked if I wanted to go to Namibia with some friends in November 2006, I jumped at the chance to see some of Africa through my adult's eyes...

Since the 2006 Namibia trip, my friend Frank and I have visted Tanzania (July 2007) and Kenya and Zanzibar (Sept 2007). Also in September, we visited Rwanda - a moving and extraordinary trip, not least because we had the once in a lifetime experience of trekking up the Virunga Mountains in Dian Fossey's footsteps and seeing the Mountain Gorillas...
