Marc, Linda and I leave on the 12th. We are AA to Zurich and Zurich to JNB. Linda is DFW to Dulles to JNB.

Betty has already left she is in Egypt right now. Doing a trip there with a week on the Nile then coming early into Cape Town and going down to Hermanus for a couple of nights.

People coming and going in all directions!

Ken and I are doing a 4 night jaunt different place each night to areas of South Africa and camps we have not seen, Ron and Linda are doing the same thing but different camps that I have already seen but want her to see. We meet up on the Garden Route on the 17th and then drive into Cape Town together looking at a few properties on the way.

The city tour, it is really good to get your bearings and know a little about the town. I hope you all get to go up Table Mountain weather permitting that is really special. I want to show Linda some hotels in town and I need Ken for pictures, so we three are going to not do the tour in the morning but spend the day site inspecting. Our time is so busy there is no spare time to do anything. Ron will probably be coming along with you though. After that I will be doing all the tours with you and NO MORE WORK, would not miss the winelands or Cape Point again I think they are really great highlights of Cape Town.

Only other time I will "stray" is that I have 6 clients at Leopard Hills while we are at Singita and they want to meet me. They wanted to book Singita but we had it booked. I explained there was no point in waitlisting it would NOT clear. I will pop over there one afternoon inbetween game drives to meet them or they may pop over to Singita remains to be seen.

I still cant believe it is finally here always seemed SO FAR in the future.
