“Hi Joel,
We had the most wonderful awesome time away. We’re actually all a bit bummed that it’s over. The camps we stayed at were fantastic and a really good balance.
RAW was very rustic and we all loved it. We had breakfast around the campfires. The staff were lovely and Ella even got to go on a horse safari. Upon arrival, we were a little concerned that there was no water and all we would be doing was the jeeps. But it wasn’t an issue at all. There were so many animals to see and we all went to the pool every day for downtime. We even saw a pack of wild dogs chasing an Impala. Ella cried when we left, and Cooper decided he wants to get an African passport so he can work at a camp. Obviously the kids both really enjoyed it.
Camp Xakanaxa was amazing. The accommodation is beautiful. The greeting and staff were fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The boat Safaris were a highlight. We saw lots of Elephants while on this and a massive crocodile. We also saw Leopards, Cheetas, Lions and Hippos. We were totally spoiled. We had lunch out in the bush one day. They set up a table for the whole camp. It was a surprise which Troy & I particularly enjoyed.
The 2 camps were very different from each other but a great balance – which really complimented our stay.
We can’t thank you enough for the change of accommodations in Zimbabwe. With the water restrictions and the electricity run by hydro, the power was out during the day. The heat and mosquitos were unbearable. The move to the hotel was very much appreciated. Thank you! We caught the transfer into town each night and tried different restaurants. There was a great selection. Ella & I enjoyed our horse safari while the fishing was a highlight for Coop. He managed to catch 2 Tigerfish. The view from the pool over the water hole was amazing. And we went and watched the vulture feeding!
Thank you for all your help and support. We all had the most wonderful time. In fact, we’ve all said numerous times that we wish we were back in Africa.
Many Thnxs for taking care of our family. We all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and have memories to last us a lifetime.
Take care.
Best
Kath & Family”
