so far just on this trip alone...debs had her 30th birthday here with her family...then we flew to cape town hired a car and drove through to port elizabeth over 10 days including the garden route, the worlds highest bungie jump zip wire and jeffreys bay - which we just loved!

we just returned from 5 days in pilansberg - did suncity valley of the waves again but the highlight was the nature reserve watching a pride of lions stalking a zebra kill - awesome - saw the whole thing whilst in reverse in the car just to catch up with them - then the largets elephant known to mankind followed us down the road - so again had to turn the car around incase we got in his way...

anyway - the 5 days in pilansberg hasnt been posted on our blog yet - but all the photos and filming that we took will be on there in the next couple of days....

on jan 2nd we are going down to port shepstone for 5 days for a beach holiday - another part of south africa i havent seen yet...hopefully will be doing gorge swinging there and maybe some surfing and skating! awesome...

anyway if you are interested just go to the link above and sign up for our updates....we are only here until jan 23rd when we fly onto australia for 6 months - we have just this second booked concert tickets to see evanescence in adelaide and pink in melbourne - funny how we plan our year off travelling around who is playing in which city in each country...

hopefully about to book tickets to see JUST JINGER at emporers palace - anyone else going that wants to meet up = in fact i might post another topic on that? anyone interested...??????
