Saturday 30th July

We had an early start today as we wanted to go to a nearby market in order to buy some fabric for our happy pants. When we got back to Fisheman's rest, we had our breakfast and then we were measured by the local tailor. We then climbed aboard Tilly the Truck and chugged our way down to Majete Safari park. However, on the way, Mother Hen (aka Julia) got told off for taking a photo whilst going through a police check point. We eventually arrived at the nature reserve where we put up our tents and had a quick lunch. We then jumped on the safari jeep and set off on our quest to find animals. We were very successful as we saw antelopes, warthogs, hartebeests, hippos, crocodiles and baboons. Our adventure ended on a high as we saw two groups of elephants and one group even saw an impala fight.
When we came back from our safari quest, we were escorted to the shop. Millie found some dungarees and decided to try them on. As you can see, they suited her very well!


Later in the afternoon, we had a BBQ of sausages and burgers, cooked by the lovely Mumma Bear (aka Julia again). We then ended this amazing day with s'mores toasted over a campfire and a game of Go Fish underneath a sky of beautiful stars.

  2. It's been a week since we waved you off at Heathrow, I expect it has seemed like a long time to you adventurers, with all the new sights, sounds and smells. We are loving the blog and the photos, all the smiling young faces, doing something truly worthwhile. As the saying goes, everyone here is thinking of everyone there.
    Continue to take great care of each other, and doing good work. Much love, Lee (Millie's Dad) X
