One of the most exciting, educational and fulfilling things I have done in my life was to overland through Africa.

I admit I was totally unprepared for what I went through and I know I wasted so much time and money figuring it all out.

Flame lily seed pods!
With such a delicate flower it is quite interesting to see that the seed pods are so large.

The seed heads on the left are from the delicate yellow flame lily and the smaller ones from the more common red/yellow.

Welcome to my social page. This is where I will be posting all my Going Home to Africa updates and any personal updates. Keeping life simple ... (hopefully from all the fake nonsense on the other platform). Dawning of a new day!
