South Africa Updates
Well, here in NJ we've got the air conditioner cranked up this week ... temps in the 90's ... in sunny South Africa , it's winter ... my friends in SA tell me it's been sunny and just a bit of a chilly winter, but that doesn't matter at all ... it's a great time to visit ... can't wait till I go back again.
Something new! There's a new luxury train which travels from Johannesburg to Hoedspruit (Hoedspruit is ideally situated very close to the central Kruger National Park ). This is great ... now visitors that arrive in Johannesberg later in the day don't have to stay a night in Johannesberg before heading out to Kruger the next day ... just hop on the luxury train and by midday the next day you're in Hoedspruit and only about 45 minutes from some stunning private game lodges in the area. Very cool.
Another great development for the Kruger area is that beginning August 17th, SA Airlink will be flying directly from Nelspruit (the closest airport to the southern section of the Kruger Park) directly to Livingstone (Zambia) so guests can enjoy a game drive and breakfast at a private lodge in the Kruger area in the morning ... and by that afternoon visit Victoria Falls and go on a sunset cruise on the Zambezi River! Extra cool ...
