hooolidays

I'm on holidays!!! school holidays for the next two weeks, being a teacher, I get them too! being a relief teacher I also have the luxury of making my own holidays so I am taking an extra week hahha yaaaay!
e
I'm going to start my holidays with getting fit! i am planning a trip to Africa in january, which involves trekking in the mountains of Uganda in search of Gorillas, I need to train so I can handle it! then we are heading to the plains and craters of kenya and tanzania to spot the big 5 (lions, leopards, elephants, buffalos and rhinos) and hopefully many more animals! I can't wait!

Oh Lucky you and even better is the holiday planned for next year.

Now that sounds like an AWESOME holiday.
Enjoy your 3 weeks off for now though ( Nope....NOT jealous at all )

enjoy you holiday, wow going to africa in january lucky you

Enjoy the time off and sounds like a great upcoming vacation

Have fun, your trip sounds amazing although far too energetic for me

well enjoy your time off have a good time

Sounds great. Could you fit a small person in your suitcase? Only 5'2 and fairly petite.
Don't forget the camera. Hope you have a lovely holiday

Have a fantastic holiday now! I am so jealous of your upcoming holiday in January, it sounds awesome!

janey not everybodys holiday is .................... drinking strongbow and smoking fags..... but it is mine so wen we going

thanks guys! I'm very excited about Africa, in the process of finding a new camera to take with me, any recommendations? I am selling my DSLR for something more simple, a high performance wide lens compact camera.

looking at the nikon Coolpix L120 but read some bad reviews as well as good. its hard to chooose!!!!

I love Nikon cameras. My husband has a film SLR and a DSLR (he was able to save all of his lenses... very cost effective!) I, on the other hand only need a small camera. I, too have been looking for a new and more compact camera. Olympus have a really good range of cameras with great reviews ( I stick to Nikon, Canon and Olympus because these manufacturers concentrate on making good cameras and not so much branching out into other electronic areas.) The L120 is a really nice camera and a decent price, the other I would recommend (a bit pricier, but more compact and a bit retro looking) is the Olympus SZ-30MR. I am considering it for m next camera

oh thank you! I'll check it out.
