Camping in Africa (pictures now included!)

Post by lusi »

Thought I would share a bit of Africa with you. This was our Easter weekend in the bush!

Some are still a bit big - sorry! :oops:

The road to the bush (5 hours!)
Image

Our 5* accommodation!
Image

The river
Image

A fish I caught (Barbel) - the marks on in it are caused by presumably a crocodile!
Image

The tiny spot in the middle of the pic is a hippopotamus
Image

At the end of a hard day fishing - back to camp
Image

Oh and before I forget..................... this is me!! :shock: :lol:

I'll assume you know this to be fact, because you've been to Africa, and have pictures of your own to shar with us?

Some people don't like giving their identities out over the web.

Believe what you will!!

Yes Zaire changed its name to DRC but I actually live in Zambia just below DRC.

Yes we do eat the fish but it is not the better ones - barbel are quite oily fish and very sandy as they live at the bottom of the river.

And yes HJ that is the best part of the trip - heading home in the sunset!

There is no picture of me coz I was the one with the camera fortunately!! :lol: :wink:
