Well who would have thought it... it must have been the heat or something. Anyway at approx 4 pm in the afternoon at a small place called Negpi on the banks of the mighty Okavango River in Namibia I dropped to one knee and proposed to the young and beautiful Emily...

...even Pierre - our South African guide had a tear in his eye... Girl's blouse. Anyway it had already been a great day with drinking games on the truck and as Emily said yes - it only got better!
