Greetings from South Africa

A few days of respite from the Explorer Scouts as they wander the dunes and rainforests of St Lucia on the East Coast of South Africa.

The expedition has gone smoothly so far, and the kids have seen lots of animals, learnt a lot of thier game course, visited Swaziland, held snakes twice and made cement casts of hippo, hyena and crocodile footprints. More can be found at:

On Tuesday we hed on towards the battlefields and then on to Jo'burg. After a couple of days break we then get our next batch of explorer scouts ... and go around the whole thing again.
