  1. When was the first New York City Marathon run and by whom.
  2. The bike frame features a colorful array of butterflies. It was called the Butterfly bike.
  3. If you find that "somebody" please let me know!
  4. We received a message on the 19th Sept that the Cape Town TB Hotel (GC114RH) contained no TB's, geocoins or log book as listed in the cache page. On 10.10.10 we replaced the log book and placed it in a new location and added TB's and geocoins. 15.10.10 we received a note that the cache had once again been raided. Everything has again been removed. Somehow this cache container is had been emptied twice including the log book and the second time was in the new cache location. Everytime the container is hidden and well covered. With this cache being placed in a new location the "thief" would be logging in on the geocaching site and making use of a GPS for the co-ords. It is not fair on the owners of the TB's or geocoins that it might be a fellow cacher that is guilty. This cache was placed 25.02.07 and we have had no problems with it. As a previous cacher has mentioned perhaps this cache is being burgled and not muggled.

  7. Gerhard You could drive from Palapya to Letlhakane, Orapa to Kubu Island and sleep 1 night on the pans. This is an experience of a lifetime. You can't go to Botswana and not see the delta. If you look at GC2CQ2x, it is on the northern side of the delta. You can get to this camp with a normal 2x4 bakkie. We had lions chasing zebra through our camp the 1 night. The Khwai river flows past the camp with hippos in. Elephants roaming the camp site for food. From the Khwai to Kasane is about 300km, but it will be a full days drive. I would suggest for accommodation at Kasane/ Kazungula the Senyati Lodge. It is +- 10km from Kazungule on the Nata road where the owner has his own water hole where elephants drink at night. We were warned of robberies at night in town. You also have to do a sunset cruise on the Chobe river. I can give you all the GPS points if you would like.
  8. Chobe Safari Lodge in Kasane is great (buffet braai is highly recommended!) Cost is now 165Pulla per person.
  9. Hi Gerhard We just returne from a 3 week Botswana trip. Entered Botswana from Gobabis to Maun. North to the Khwai Comunity camp (GC2CQ2X). Back to Maun, Gweta to Nata Lodge. From there noth to Kazungula, Katima to Grooitfontein. Your distance from Gaborone to Kazungula is to far for a 1 day trip. If you need any info you can pm me. I also lived in Tsumeb, Northen Namibia for years. Marius
