Into the Jungle

I’ve been trying to nail down one international trip this year.  Was trying to find a good trip to Greece or Italy, but every itinerary was jam-packed with activities. I wanted more freedom.  (Don’t we all?)

Then I saw a deal on a trip to Africa.

So, if all the paperwork goes through, I’ll be going to South Africa this October, from the 6th through the 15th.  I’ll be spending about half the time in Cape Town, and the rest in a game preserve, photographing wild animals.

It’ll cost a bit more than I had planned to spend on my trip this year — a bit over $4,000 on airfare, hotels, and all that — but, c’mon, it’s a week in Africa, staying at high-quality accommodations.  I’ll find a way to pay for it.
