... aggressive and we were with the very experienced vet, so it was fine. Then we got to stand around and watch the procedure, which was gross but interesting.<br><br>This week, one of the black-backed jackals at the park gave birth to a litter of 6 pups. Apparently, she has eaten some of her pups in the past, so the staff swooped in and took them away from her. What surprised me was that jackals don't have their litter all at once; she had them over the ...

... and then what proceeded to be a huge 6 course meal, a beautifully presented s**ies of meals ranging from smoked haddock and dill with fancy dressings, to japanese salmon and oriental vegetables, dauphinoise potatoes and meat dish, with accompanying chocolates, truffles,cheese boards, biscuits, cakes, scones, wines. I cant list it all h**e. It was presented as though in a restaurant - on prop** plates on a table! Then a few hours lat** the appropriately called ...

... kill of a zebra the previous evening. There was the rib cage with the minimum of remaining meat and half the jaw - we had seen the vultures on the ground earlier and love em or hate em they, and other members of the "clean up company" do perform a vital role in the ecological system. At this point I have to say that I went on and wrote loads more and then lost it so gave up last night gnashing my teeth. I'm still proving incompetent in the loading ...

... with Craig but I caught up on that later in the day! Robben Island What a crack getting there, as you may have gathered the weather wasn't great today and we had to get to the island via a ferry thingy! Well forget the catamaran in Jamaica this thing was flying in all directions! Sometimes I could see a wall of water on one side of me to looking down at nothing the other side. At the same time I was trying to watch the film of the island without screaming ...

greetings all, well I'm in south africa right now. After a very very exhausting journey and 25 hours later I'm finally back in SA after 9 years. I first had to take the high speed train from brussels to Paris. after 90 mins I arrived at Charle de Gaulle where I had to get the bad news the flight was overbooked and that I won't be flying that same night. After trying to get me on a flight without any luck, Air France offered me a hotel ...

... stage - they ended up on another tour!!) :( and spent the next 3 days with them exploring Africa until our Gecko's tour started. During those three days we spent most of the time at the local shopping centre! Where we descovered the fantastic "Wimpy's"!! - a glorified MacDonalds! Our newly met friends Amy, Sarah &amp; Toni had just been in India for 4 weeks so ...

... to look sheepish. The rest of his story I can't remember as by this point I was face down in the pool gulping huge amounts of water whilst uncontrollably laughing. Eventually I figured out that he had been in a car accident and the force of the collision had thrown his ass into a tape which unfortunately got wedged somewhere very uncomfortable. Obviously I could not wait to put this on the internet. Toothless Pool Sharks and a night out in the smallest ...

Hiya, well, as most of you already know, I'm back on the road again after a 2-year stint of stability and routine and am (I'm tempted to say "safely ensconced" but that would be untrue) ensconced in Jo'burg and staying at the Ashram. Given that I'm sending this email, you can confidently assume that your collective fears of me being murdered on the streets of Jo'burg were unfounded. Many of you will be pleased about this (though a couple of you may ...

... the car shook and the engine was losing power. Nissan #2 pulled through and finally got us to the Blue Chili Hostel well after dark. We were warmly welcomed by Wayne, the owner, who was a friend of Dale's. The next day was spent doing errands, and we actually got to see a movie (Davinci Code). After two months of camping and more recently three weeks of living in a ...
