Everyone we spoke to about our idea of a do-it-yourself trip to Southern Africa thought we were crazy, but thank goodness my husband insisted, because we had the adventure of a lifetime. Definitely NOT a safari, but nevertheless a journey filled with awe, wonder and delight. From the moment we landed in Cape Town—at midnight—we were enchanted, and that feeling continued throughout our stay in that delightful city and later in Namibia and Botswana.
