I am off to Africa - again

In Jan 2008 I did the African 4x4 trip from Cape Town to Mombassa. We covered seven countries -- South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Zambia, Malawi, Tanzania and Kenya -- five game parks, two deserts, several rivers the famous of which is the Zambezi with its Victoria Falls at Livingstone on the border of Zambia and Zimbabwe. It was a most interesting experience. Read all about it in my Travel Blog website as noted on the right panel.

Now, I am going again to Africa; this time to do the northern half from Dar-es-Salaam to Cairo. We'll do five countries -- Tanzania, Kenya, Ethiopia, Sudan and Egypt -- two game parks, lots of desert in Sudan and lots of ancient history in Eqypt. There is a river boat trip also from Wadi Halfa (Sudan) to Aswan (Eqypt) over Lake Nasr. I am looking forward very much to this trip since it means that I'd have covered Africa from bottom to top; by road...
