I realize that satisfaction and joy and good things in life is a heart thing, not a location thing. So in a way it’s more than just being back in Jo’burg and making it work, it’s about finding the cool in the mundane, the beauty in the face brick apartment complexes and the freedom beyond the security fences.

Why not capture the next You Tube sensation with your iphone while you're here. Try however to find something different and original in the Park now that we've all seen the baby buffalo survive the lion and crocodile.

We hope you have the best time ever!

Kind Regards

a Saffa
