Wow. Love the old dugga boys.

I'm guessing your Blaser 9.3x62 (?) was used on everything?

Adam,
For a moment I thought this was the same trip you reported on a while ago but had just got back from it. Just the same, somehow I get the feeling you take longer safaris than the former Prince of Wales did.
