Quote: "The True Joy of Life is.....Being Thoroughly Worn Out Before You're Thrown on the Scrap Heap." GB Shaw. Two NZ retirees living in Australia travelling up the West Coast Of Africa mid 2012. Leaving from Pretoria in late March and hopefully get to UK late July. Like to hear from anyone planning a similar trip about the same time to compare notes.
