Today we are chilling sun tanning, drinking and eating in no
particular order ever conscious of a long trip tomorrow back into South Africa . I
re-organise the roof rack to enable us to fit in a large Marimba and a smaller
one along with other goodies the girls have bought and what they expect to buy
on the way home.
Spoke to John Youens the owner of Casa John who had done a
similar trip up North but taking in the Gorillas in Rwanda and some of Uganda in
2011 and he shared the same opinion about viewing game in Africa and the fact
that Kruger still is the number one place to see the variety of wildlife in
Africa.
I have an article from the East African newspaper which
states that Tanzania had been voted the Best Natural Tourist Destination in
Africa in an International Survey of 276 specialised safari operators in 8
major safari countries, 139 wildlife parks and reserves, 2324 user reviews and
756 expert reviews with a score of 4.8 out of 5 with Kenya and Botswana scoring
4.7 followed by South Africa and Zambia with 4.6. I am afraid I would dispute
this; perhaps in the 60’s and 70’s this would have been the case, but not
today. You would also have to dispute the value for money as the cost of
entering Ngorongoro, Serengeti, Masai Mara, Tsavo and Selous is exorbitant.
We had Grilled Rock Cod for dinner and lamented that we
could not enjoy a few more seafood meals in Mozambique
as the taste is so different to the frozen seafood that we get in Johannesburg .
The whales and dolphins are in fine form again to day coming
close to land with the high tide.
We would definitely come back to the Mozambique
