For anyone who has been following our Facebook page and newsletters, you have heard a lot about our recent travels in southern Tanzania.

The melding of history of the Swahili people, Arab traders and the explorers, combined with untouched wilderness makes this part of the world different from anywhere else you may have been.

We want to thank you for arranging some very enjoyable days of touring while we were in Capetown. We were able to see a great deal even though we were there only a short time. The lunch at Le Quartier Francais was a lovely stop in our day in the wine country.
