Last Day

Fear not The Worried Westons - the other group are fine! They are currently off on a sunset cruise for their last day/ Ryan's birthday.

We have had another fantastic 2 days - the helicopter ride and lion experience were fantastic (so I'm told!) but you'll have to get a more detailed update from those that went.

Today we started with bacon butties on the Zambezi river, on our breakfast cruise with hippo and crocodile surrounding us - very peaceful and a great way to start the day. This was followed by an elephant encounter where we were all able to stroke and feed a herd of elephants which was a truly amazing experience. The baby ones were particularly cute but the real talking point were the bull elephants who impressed everyone with their "5th leg"!

The afternoon was spent back at camp supposedly packing, but seems to be lazing around creating even more mess. Guess packing will take place first thing tomorrow morning! We have a dinner scheduled here at the camp site this evening to celebrate our month long adventure and share our highlights.

This is probably the last post, though Miss Witherspoon may add one more comment to let you know that they all boarded the plane safely - she's staying for an extra 10 days, minus the 12 hungry smelly men!!!

Thank you all so much for your comments, it's great to know that you have been following us and hopefully the posts have given you an insight into the amazing trip we've all had.

See you very soon!
Team 2
