LAST EDITED ON Jun-26-06 AT 04:33PM (MST)[p]In a little over 24 hrs, my new wife and I will be on a plane bound for 2 weeks in South Africa!! We have been planning this honeymoon for over a year now and it has finally got here. Everything is ready to go..We are all packed up, all the gun permits and other paperwork is in order, and we are ready to do some serious flying! Its a LONG trip over there. We fly out of Tucson on to Phoenix and then on to Washington DC to overnight. Then we board the big plane and fly all the way to the country of Senegal in west Africa to refuel the jet and then keep an truckin till we get to Johannesburg. Its a 17 hr flight. And from there, we catch one more plane to Hoedspruit.. Not fun when you're fired up and ready to get there and start hunting and breathing in Africa after a long absence..
We will be hunting for 7 days ...The property I will be hunting neighbors the Kruger National Park and is over 35,000 acres in size. Should be big enough to find some good plains game!! Maybe a day or so of bird hunting thrown in there as well.. Then we are going to do alot of sight seeing and photo safari hunting with cameras for a few days days in Kruger. After that, we are going to just do some little sight seeing around the local towns and do some shopping and such. Should be the times of our lives.. This will be my third time to SA and I always told her that I would take her as soon as I could. I know she is going to fall in love with Africa as much as I did the first time I went..
I got the memory cards ready and lots of film for the cameras, so be ready to see alot of pics when we get back in a few weeks!!
Wish us luck!!!
