Leave from London, Heathrow Airport tomorrow, Arrive in Johannesburg Monday! Booked on Safari for Tuesday and start working at the Lion Park on Wednesday! Excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey here Manda, so looking forward to this trip. I leave Australia on Tuesday and arrive at Jo'Burg at 4pm, Tuesday so by time get through customs, shopping think I will arrive at the park around 7pm.
I haven't packed yet and am packing in a backpack for first time in years, so really have to think about what to take.
Have a safe flight and enjoy the safari (I should have arrived early and done that).
Look forward to meeting you & Kate on Tuesday/Wednesday. When do you get to the park?

Hi! I am planning on booking this trip for sometime next year, I would love to hear how your trip went if you don't mind?

Hey Mandaloo! Yes you get a t-shirt on arrival which most people live in as you'll be covered in little scratches and holes in your clothes :)

Hi Manda, nice to meet you. I only booked this trip last week, so will come around very fast and so much to do. I haven't done anything like this before, but have travelled quite a lot over the years, to varies places, although never to South Africa before. I haven't been to the doctor's for any jabs yet (didn't think we needed rabies), so must definately get onto those things and check them out. I am so excited to be going. I fly in on the 11th from Melbourne, Australia and have 4 days at the end of this adventure to fill in, so much to see in such a little time. What are your plans?
Look forward to meeting you and Kate. Not stressed if not many on tour, that way we get to play with the lions more, that after we have done all the work though. Can't wait.
Cheers DJ
