    • Luggage And Bags: Soft hold all type bags are great for lugging around this country, bearing in mind you will be travelling a fair amount by road if you are not staying in one place.

    Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Make sure you have good walking shoes, light weight clothing but something warm to throw on during the cooler evening depending what time of year you are travelling. A hat and shades a must of course

    Toiletries & Medical Supplies: Plenty of sunscreen and mosquito repellent. Advisable to take ones own needles if possible, this is an aids rife country and in an emergency this could be a heaven sent gift.

    Photo Equipment: Cameras, plenty of memory card, binoculars and digicam if you have one is a must

     Hi Donna. I really enjoyed reading your insights, and your homepage is also really entertaining. Your passion for your host-country is evident. Greetings from the desert / Jess in Dubai :-)

     Great entries Donna about your SA trip.....    		canuck68 Fri Oct 12, 2007 01:18 UTC
     Thanks Donna I enjoyed revisiting your pages. When I read your "dangers" tip I think I must have been very lucky as I have been driven by friends for thousand of kilometers in SA without incident.
