Soon the POTN Africa 2008 expedition leaves for South Africa.

If we get internet access during the expedition we will (maybe ;-)a ) use this thread to make updates.


The thread will be unlocked just before we leave :D


Stay tuned :lol:

ps I stuck it only so we can find it easily when we are on the road.

I have to admit that I never thought about that song before we went, but now I can't even look at my pictures without humming it in my head! :D
