The speaker at our February meeting was Julie Harrison who, with the help of her husband Ian, gave us a fascinating talk about their holidays in South Africa. Their love of the country and its wildlife began when friends invited them to stay with them. That first visit changed their lives as they fell under South Africa’s spell and they have returned many times since to the Kruger National Park. Covering an area of more than 19,000 square kilometres, the Kruger has very few fences to restrict the animals’ movements, except small ones around the safari camps where visitors are accommodated.
