Packing Tip for Women

Packing Tip for Women Only"

In the recent posts I have not seen any mention of the importance of taking sports bras. The rides in the jeeps or whatever transportation is being used on the game drives is very rough. This was suggested to me and it was an amazing difference. Make sure they are light enough to dry overnight because "smalls" are not done by the staff. I actually washed one and took it to where they were hanging the clothes to dry and hung it up myself. Take two which will give enough drying time.

Secondly, we brought golf windshirts which proved invaluable. The wind shirts under the jackets did exactly what they are supposed to do, keep the wind from penetrating. Made a big difference also. Mornings are cold, afternoons get warmenr and evenings cold again.

I wish I needed a sports bra. Instead I have lots of seat padding for bumpy game drives, but it doesn’t make me any happier.

Not well-endowed enough either

Well, then Nyamera, you could get away with that dress on the Harper's Bazaar thread.

The olive Armani dress? No way, it wouldn’t look indecent at all on me!

Good tip spiegel.
I actually wore standard underwire harness like cotton jobs on safari - as attractive as a matronly guard lady - apologies ahead to the matrons.

In my case, I find that sports bras aren't supportive enough to prevent black eyes.

Sherry, you're bad! LOL!

I too suggest sports bras, but for myself, it's the usual underwire (when I remember). Like many guys who put the razor away while on safari, I often skip that particular undergarment!
