Djuma Game Reserve - Compliments







	Dear Chris (and Kim) We enjoyed receiving the latest news from Djuma which brought back so many happy memories of our fantastic stay with you at Bush lodge on 21,22 and 23 January. Our experiences then under your superb guiding skills, Chris, remain at the forefront of our memory. We also so appreciated the hospitality provided under your, Kim, direction. We learnt from the news bulletin that you are both back from your U.K. leave. We half expected that you might call in on us in Milngavie but I expect your time was 'action -packed'. Do call some other time when you are over here again. I promised to send you, for the record, our list of birds and animals seen and this is now, somewhat late, attached. You pointed out a good many more birds to us but if we were not smart enough to see them too we did not count them! On our whole SA trip we notched more than 150 different birds but missed the Knysna Lourie! What a holiday we had overall but the highlight was, undoubtedly, the 3 days at Djuma. Best wishes to you both. Donald and Ros UK January 2005 See below for Donald and Ros' complete sightings at Djuma list
