Just booked the flights today. Emirates from San Francisco to Lusaka via Dubai, leaving Sept 21, spending a day and a half in Dubai, arriving Lusaka on 24th. 12 days of plains game in 2 different areas, with the last 7 days focused on Sitatunga. My lady friend will be joining me for that last week, it's her 1st trip to Africa.

Props to Mark Young, who has been thoroughly professional in arranging my safari, especially when the planned hunt hit an unexpected snag. Also to Shawn Kennedy of Gracy Travel for her efficient service. Lastly to John and Laura DuPlooy, whom I've never hunted with or even met, but whom I've already realized are people of great character and integrity. When they hit a snag on the hunt they were offering, they made a plan and offered me an excellent alternative. More details to follow after my hunt, but these 3 are professionals who deserve consideration by anyone seeking first rate people to deal with on a safari.


It's been too long since I've been in Africa...

Dan,

I really appreciate the kind words.

Thanks,

Mark
