Gypsy`s Sunday Spot: Okavango Delta


If you`re living in Africa and you havn`t been to the bush every so often, you just have to take time out and go.....it`s in our blood....it is there where we find ourselves again and charge our batteries.....and the nice thing about South Africa, is you don`t even have to travel far.......but today I want to spend the day in one of the most beautiful nature spots in Africa......the Okavango Delta in Botswana....a wetland paradise, containing roughly 95 percent of Botswana's surface water and located within the arid Kalahari Desert......an area of unbelievable natural beauty.......so here we go........



.........I`ll start the day lazy.....


......and then for a fabulous safari...an elephant ride, lots and lots of animals, miles and miles of water, incredible birdlife and peace........














Africa Exclusive

......for the rest of the day I will be right here....reading, enjoying the wildlife and nature ....and just catch up with myself again.....


.....and before I know it the sun will set and the fires will be lit and we will all sit down to an african braai.....

Gypsy`s Sunday Spot: Cote d`Azur, the fabulous French Riviera



.....So this is my spot for today......and what a spot!!!!....here at the Cote d’Azur, or the stunning French Riviera as it is more commonly known......For the most part of the morning I will just stay here in the shade, reading and reflecting...... looking out at this incredible view and magical blue waters......and I am happy and at peace....but of course that will not be enough when the children and the rest of the gang awake...so here we go.......




........for a bit of exercise and a brisk walk, ........ visiting Vence, a quaint mountain village in the Alps of Southeastern France....enjoying its charming buildings , shopping at fresh produce markets and stands, and having a countryside picnic.......this is just heaven
