Three years ago, so many people on this site helped make my first trip to Southern Africa so amazing, I have managed to go back every year. After the complaints and bickering, I went away-glad to be back. Kay, Queen of Mala Mala Guests, are you out there?

Sounds like you may be a little behind on your trip reports !!! . Looking forward.

regards - tom
ps - yes KayeN, is around, happy to say!!!!

Tom, you are right and I will do my best to give a report on riding horses in Botswana with African Horseback Safaris-thanks for the KayeN update. I am headed to Australia in November instead of Africa this year.

Looking forward to your riding report! I'll be in Australia this year too.

Maybe look at this http://www.jabirusafarilodge.com.au/ for off the beaten path near Cairns with a little bit of African thrown in

Hi ShellCat,
I am around though here very rarely as like you I could no longer stand many of the ultra nasty comments! It got way too much and was no entertaining reading or helpful to anyone, hope they all got it out of their systems!!!
Yes, I am still a huge fan of MalaMala and will be there for a month in july/august of this year and then will return in January 2011 with a niece and we shall do both Mashatu and MalaMala. Hope to get my photos up from my Dec/Jan 2010 trip in the next week!
Great to hear you are heading for Australia, which is of course where I live! I am in Brisbane, let me know if you are coming through at any stage!
Thanks sundowner for letting me know someone was asking after me! And Hi Tom, pleased to see you are still around!

Kind regards,

Kaye

HI Kaye, wish I were joining you at MM in Jul/Aug . Or, Dec/Jan would be good also
Looking forward to your photos, let us know please.

regards - tom

Kaye-

Thanks for the message back to me, I always ask Nils how your I always check in with Nils to see how your trips have been, and I really have you to thank for my continued interest and repeat trips to Mala Mala and Mashatu. My horseriding adventure in Botswana in the Okavanga stemmed from the Mashatu horse ride.

Right now, Brisbane is not in the schedule (boo) but that may change as I confirm other flights. It would be great to meet you. If you could shoot me a message at [email protected]-then we won't bore people with trivia.

Sundowner, thanks for passing the message to Kaye-and you as well, Tom.

Wish I could back and delete what accidently just got posted. Hit submit instead of preview, sorry everyone.

Hi Tom and ShellCat
Shall send an email when I get home ShellCat! It is easy to pass my passion onto those that share it!
Thanks for your message as well Tom, shall be onto it within the next week or so, unbelievably slow this time around!!!

Kind regards

Kaye
