hello
how are you all, hope you are well. I am currently in Zimbabwe and i quite like it, a very different experience from Zambia. The country is very green with lots of bush and wildlife. This project is also quite varied, some days i spend time at Masuwe lodge where the lions are, taking part in walks, cleaning lion enclosures, feeding the lions, spend time in Zambezi National Park, monitoring game or conservation work. We also spend some time with horses, grooming and riding them. The day is quite long and you end up going to bed quite early, but its all enjoyable.
Thursday night we spent a night camping on an island in the middle of the Zambezi River, this was my first ever camping experience. I really enjoyed it, a very surreal experience, watching the hippos from the island is such a wonderful sight.
I am quite suprised i didn't have many comments complaining about my sky dive. I tried to put some pictures on the blog in Zambia but it took about 20 minutes just to upload one picture so i gave up. Will try again soon, but not here.
If i do not email or do blog entries often it is because the communication here is not too good, but i am fine. Love to here from you all soon.

Hi Pod if you are reading this, can't quite see you jumping from a height!!! hope you are ok, it won't be long before you are back at the grind.
Speak soon, loads love Suexx
You seem to be having so much fun.
So glad you are now enjoying Zimbabwe. Camping out with Hippo's sounds fun. Too bad about the pics, though. But we are sure you'll get them posted later.
Now then, That jump from the plane.......
We think Padraig probably spoke for everyone..IT WAS CRAZY!!!!!
Well done though, for attempting what others never would. Your Mum telephoned us to tell us what you had done.
Take Care.
Lots of Love,
Ann & Gordon.
Hi Andrea! Glad you're enjoying yourself. I am still jealous. The weather here has been quite varied. From awful to quite bad.
Keep the posts coming, really enjoying the blog and you'll find it really rewarding when you get home and can read over your experiences again.
Have you been keeping up with the news from england much?
Having seen clips of the stupid bugger in New Zealand falling to his almost death when his parachute failed to open, I remain convinced that only crazy weirdos jump from planes! Just a punctured lung and a few broken ribs - lucky I call it! So no more of that lady and just stick to dangerous animals on safari! Hi Sue honey - 10 weeks to go theoretically. Might have to extend and wait for Andrea in Ecuador!
