Hello,
Now IM 38 years old!We had a birthday party for me and Kira last night, had a braai and drinks and music:) It was a nice evening, I fell asleep when I took Viivi to bed at 22h30...yes she also stayed up late, Guests came already around 18h00 so no wonder I was tired...also the tour ended on sunday and I did not sleep late on monday morning, so I have still some sleep to catch up on.
About my tour, the tour went very well. To have 38 people to look after can be hectic, but they all where very good in following times, I think they really enjoyed themselves.
While in Pilgrimsrest, the old gold digging town that is a museum nowdays, we went to the Blyde river Canyon and saw the three rondavels, Burke Lock potholes and had a stop in Graskop for lunch. After 2 nights in Pilgrims Rest we entered Kruger Park and stayed one night there. We went on game drives and saw a lot of animals, hyenas, wild dogs( hyeena koira) , elephants, lions, hippos, giraffes, zebra, rhinos( sarvikuono-noshörning) and many many more...also some crocodiles. And the last two nights we stayed at a private game reserve, Kwa madwala, and the guests LOVED it, it is an unfenced area with the big five animals, the guests had two safari drives a day ,morning and evening, and they had a day off so they could just relax and have a massage, many guests would have loved to stay one more night. We had a boma dinner by the fire one night and a bush breakfast on the day we left. We had a rain storm on the safari, the only rain we had on the whole trip. On the last morning we went to see a Swazi cultural show, and everyone enjoyed it, the dancing and singing.
Im happy how the tour went, now it will be much easier with the next few tours.
We will be going on some site inspections next week, to the bush, I have a lodge I need to see and also a few other places, for golfing and cultural shows.
Today we are going to just relax, and tomorrow I have to start working again, planning and finalizing for the next tours to come and for next years tours. But it is easy to work when the sun is shining and rises already about 5am:)
Cant believe christmas is almost here! It feels like a hot July in Finland here.
Bye bye, will be back in a few days again.Will try to get some pictures downloaded.
godmorgon alla där!
