New to Forums-Traveling to Elephant Plains in September 2008

Submitted by Meerkats2008 on Wed, 16/07/2008 - 8:19am. New to Boma?

Hello everyone. I have never posted, but have been frequenting the site to get a look at where I will be in 6 weeks!! I am so excited. I will be going to the Kalahari first for 2 weeks to work with meerkats (on the real Meerkat Manor). I am an Earthwatch volunteer. Then I'm off to Elephant Plains, and then to Phinda (Vlei Lodge). Thought I would see who else may be going that way this year, and get any advice I might need for my trip to the reserve.

Hi Meerkats!! Welcome to Africam and the boma! I so envy you for your upcoming trip. Talk to Katja and Gerda on the Waterhole Chat forum. They were in both EP and Nkorho a month ago. Janine lives in SA and might have a tip or two for you as well. Please stop in to the chat forum and meet the gang!

Hello & welcome Meerkats! I wish you a wonderful trip. Sounds like you will have many great stops along the way. Ingwe is another good one to chat with - she is headed back there for a holiday in just a couple weeks.
