Round the Delta : Botswana and Namibia 2026: Ka'ingo GR, Waterberg

Saturday 19 September : Ka'ingo GR, Waterberg
Royal Morobisi Lodge 
What an awesome find: A Big 5 Reserve near Vaalwater that's a great and much less busy alternative to Welgevonden with such friendly and accommodating staff. We will definately be back.
We are on a roadtrip with Nikki and Ranj. What an amazing start to their African adventure.

GREECE 2026 : TINOS AND HOMEWARD

Tuesday 1 to Thursday 3 September
It's only a 15 minute ferry ride to Tinos from Mykonos.We have been amazed how each island is so distinctive with a different vibe. Tinos is a low key island and most of the tourists are Greek. We enjoy hanging with the locals and dialing down the excitement levels now that we are homeward bound.On Wednesday our last ferry ride is to Rafina near Athens airport. For our last night we stay at the beach in Artemedis, a decidedly more working class beach resort near the airport.
Last drinks with a view. Last dinner. Last Greek salad.Last breakfast of coffee and a pastry.
Loukamades.
Rusks are not only a South African thing. 
And there's always time for a whisky in the Swiss lounge in Zurich, terminal E.
