    This made me think back to the one time I went camping at Pilanesberg. I had to hurry to errect our tent before a storm hit us, unfortunately I wasn't in time and the wind snapped some of the poles before I could properly secure them. Then I proceeded to pack up during the storm.

    Yet another wonderful installment of this fine series! Suggestion: ALWAYS carry Emergency Chocolate with you on your adventures! It suffices for Kirsty's grump-early-morning-sugar needs, and for lousy-dinner replacements, and for plummeting mid-afternoon blood sugar levels! And for telling Rob of your latest tent misadventures......well, I suspect that he will manage to understand!

    With all that's going on in the States you're videos are a welcome respite! You two make a fantastic team, as I am sure you know but it has to be said. Your father-in-law is remarkably understanding! :) Thanks for making it a little bit longer, every moment spent with you and Kirsten is wonderful. Try taking some protein bars with you to have before breakfast. Might be cheerier and less frustrated in the long run. Sorry about dinner and the storm breaking down camp. How was Kristen's dinner? If you start a Patreon or GoFundMe or the equivalent we could probably get you your own camper and the video equipment you really want. Something to keep in mind. Thanks as always! Oh, I almost hit comment without mentioning the gorgeous photography!

    JAMES! A Tipp to help your pans with your fluid head, use an elastic band at the end of your handle. The resistance of your fluid head and the gradual preasure from the elastic as you pull it, results in a more gradual start and stop to your panning.

With her working at camp while you were on safari made it hard for me to imagine what she looked like. Very pretty. Good thing you like the bush so mush with the problems. Last one was the caterpillar poo at camp and this time to get camp back in order in the dark. I had to sleep in a sleeping bag on a tree root and never went camping again.
