Walking update… 7 December 2009
KENNETH STAINBANK NATURE RESERVE…
It was with a heavy heart that I said goodbye to those who came to Lords and Legends before they set off to the Kenneth Stainbank Nature Reserve. Unfortunately my toe is taking a lot longer to heal than I thought it would and I am loathe to put any undue pressure on it until the swelling has gone down.
By all accounts, the walk was wonderful. Janine kindly sent me pictures of the castle, a wonderful tree, a number of buck and a zebra. Thanks so much for that. Lynne and Fred, Maureen and Graeme, sorry that you did not manage to meet up with the main party – but glad that you did do a walk on your own and had fun.

Christmas get-together… This will be the last walk for 2009!
13th December 2009
WESSA and Toti Ramblers will be holding a joint walk as our last one for the year. Dick Dyson has put forward the following suggestion and it will also be in the South Coast Sun on Thursday.
07:00 Meet at Umbogavango gate, then drive approximately 1 km to Heartlands North gate where we will leave the cars in a secure area. From there we will walk to Mamba Valley gate off Dickens Road. Walk through Mamba Valley accompanied by expert birders until approximately 09:30
09:30 Collect our cars from North Gate and return to Umbogavango where we can continue to walk or just set up for our picnic lunch, chill and enjoy!
I have suggested that each person bring a R25.00 wrapped gift with them, which will all be put into a bag and handed out by “Father Christmas”.
We will be walking – rain or shine – so look forward to seeing you all there.
Please note:
We will be meeting at Lords and Legends between 06:30 -06:45 for those who do not have transport.
Please pass this information on to those who do not have e mail facility.
Till next time!
