Hi!
We are super excited about our trip!...and about getting married, too, of course :)
Please forgive, if these seem like silly questions, but We leave Jan 22nd and
want our honeymoon to be as perfect as possible!

1) Will we be happer w/ more shortsleeved T's for the day gamedrives? (or will we need more "bug protection")

2)Are we going to be able to charge laptop/camera batteries?--we have an array of converters--but don't know which, exactly, we'll need.

3)How much actual battery time do you use during game drives?

4)How many pictures did you take during each safari drive?


Again, ANY help would be appreciated!
Thanks, so much!
Lissa and Billy

Just back yesterday from Northern Tanzania and Zanzibar, you'll have a brilliant time. Look out for bugs at this time of year after rainy season, take serious anti-mosquito stuff especially for sundown as there are millions of bugs. So best in long sleeves. We found it quite hard to recharge batteries so took various packs of batteries with us. It depends how many lodges you plan to be in. There is a tendency on day one to photograph everything and I mean everything but try to be selective - we have just ploughed through 700 photos and deleted over half. Also, take extra memory sticks with you, cos you don't want to run out the day you see an elusive leopard.
Most of all, enjoy meeting the people - they are much more genuinely warm than in Kenya (in our brief experience)

Oh, and congratulations on getting married
