Meeting Kingsley Holgate

As preparation continues for my African adventure, myself and the other 4 happy travellers had the amazing opportunity to meet the great explorer himself... Kingsley Holgate! He is as down to earth as he looks with that beard and hair and has given us some invaluable advice and tips! :) His next trip is called Cape to Cape, where him and his team are planning to travel the entire coast of Africa, and should take about a year... amazing! We've been invited to join the Mozambique part of the trip in Feb/Mar next year... decisions, decisions! :)

At the back is Ian, Me, John and Richard and sitting is Barry and Kingsley!

Just as a side note, i've been asked by the editor of southafricalogue.com to write an article a week about what's going on in the beautiful city of Durbs... so i expect everyone to read, it'll be checking up on you! :)
