Mark;

Congrats again on your elephant and other fine trophies. Your hunts sounded like a whirlwind... what fun!! One of these days our paths with actually cross instead of nearly meet.

You mentioned that you didn't have any problems with British Airways. I should mention, since our arrival routes were just days a part. The fellow we brought along to assist my husband and do our video/photos didn't receive his duffle bag for 11 days. Fortunately, all our other luggage and guns arrived in Maun with us. We were told various stories. First that it was caught in a conveyor in London and would arrive shortly. Then for the next 10 days we were told that BA had experience labor problems at Heathrow... that seems more likely. When the duffle did arrive it was missing 2 pairs of safari pants, 1 pair of wranglers, and the birthday card our friend had brought along to give me!!!

Again congrats.... hope your move to my favorite state of Wyoming is an easy one!!!!! Best regards, Darin

In reading your report, that is exactly what I like about Garry, even for plainsgame, it is hunting and not shooting. Don't always come home with everything, but when you do you worked for it. Did Tom leave his son Robert there again this summer? Robert did some video taping for me last summer.

Hi Mark,
It looks like it was a great hunting trip. Hunting for a whole month is a real experience. You missed the coldspell. We had snow on the Drakensberg, and the whole contry was very cold. In some areas of KZN the schools was closed as no one could reach them.

The elephant sounds like a great experience. Good luck with the move, I'm glad its not me.

Regards
Jaco Human
