South Africa Trip 26/10 - 16/11 2007

Finally added another continent in my visited list. Africa has never made to the top of my favourite places. I guess being born in Malaysia we do not have much information about this gigantic continent. Anyhow, I must now say I am glad to prove myself wrong. South Africa must be the most beautiful country I have ever seen with its well preserved nature and wildlife!

Three weeks in this country in south hemisphere has been an enriching experience. I could have taken hours to write this blog. In fact I have spent almost an hour each night during the trip just to write the diary (pardon me but I am no longer used to write with pen and paper)! Nevertheless, it's going to a short blog now with general summary. I will elaborate more may be in my future blog entries...
