"A large swimming cage." I guess this means doing a little trolling for crocodiles also!  Bull1 | |||

Dude, Where was this bloody houseboat last year, or the year before, or the year before?  Walking my bum for miles across the bloody hills in 110 degree heat when we could have been riding in air conditioned comfort drinking fruity drinks with little umbrellas in them and shooting buff out the window! On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died. If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch... Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son! - Rudyard Kipling Life grows grim without senseless indulgence. | |||

Cross L Be glad she enjoys your company that much. I can't get my wife to go again and She darn sure won't go if we're not staying in a lodge. Not gonna do the tent thing at all. Nice deal, I wish I could go this year but, alas, it is not in the cards. | |||

Would make for a cool safari. Maybe one day I'll be able to hunt from this boat. Have any pictures of the boat? | |||

What about sundowners around a campfire? "There are worse memorials to a life well-lived than a pair of elephant tusks." Robert Ruark | |||

That was my first thought as well. Swimming cage... nice touch. Great idea Martin! I'd love to read a hunt report from this trip. Unfortunately, I'm out for '12. | |||
