Well we have just had a fabulous time with Mike & Karin. Yesterday Martin and I did a day trip to Lake Ngami. It is about 80-90km outside of Maun and you turn at the door! It's really funny getting directions here as there are no road names etc.

We got there and drove down towards the Lake and came across what looked like a huge crop of burrs. They were higher than the car and seemed to get into everything. We finally found a road which ran along side the tree line which was much better and finally found a place where the cattle go down to drink to the lake.

We had a picnic and I think I clocked up about 30 species of bird there - lovely and peaceful and all you can hear is the cow bells and the birdlife.

We picked Mike & Karins brains the first night here and I think we have got a great itinerary worked out. We will have to finalise a few things once we get over to Zambia.

Mike and Martin are going guinea fowl shooting again this afternoon with Mike's dogs and hopefuly Clint will be able to make it as well. Should be another entertaining afternoon! I have got the important job of driving Martin & Clint - so will fill you all in next week.

We should be in Zambia ob Wednesday or Thursday next week so will have to get the wireless all set up for another country again. Hopefully I will be able to keep more up to date there - all depends on how remote some of these places that we will be going to are.

Well hope everyone is well as we both are. Love and kisses to all xxx
