Southern Africa Trip Report Index
Hello,
In the interest of clarity (particularly for newbies) I've copied the trip report links from Steph's original thread here with the new header. I’ve also arranged them in (rough) chronological order and excised a number of duplicate links. Please check to see whether your report has been listed before adding a link!

Julian,
Our Zambia trip report from March 2005:fromhttp://fodors.com/forums/pgMessages.jsp?fid=4&tid=34595009&numrespo nses=27&start=0&searchText=GovernorPhil |
Julian, I posted a report on visit to Lesotho, Hluhluwe and Kgalagadi a month or so ago, but I don't know how to cut-and-pašte the link. And does Madagascar count as Southern Africa; if so, I did a trip report from that trip, too. Both should be easy for you to find by searching either Lesotho or Madagascar. Thanks
