Home on the Dune
The water in the background is the Bay, and in the front of the photo is the Indian Ocean
My home in the forest
So remote, so isolated - just sand, stars, sky, sea |
 |
| Full moon rising through my bedroom curtains |
 |
| Followed by a golden dawn |
 |
My beloved Boerboel, Leo, overlooking Inhaca island and
Hells Gate Channel |

Bambi - rescued her for sale as bushmeat. I raised her with a bottle for a few weeks.
Eventually I released her into the Elephant Reserve
I like to think of her walking around in the forest |
 |
| She loved honey!! |
 |

| Our old watering hole on Inhaca island, but then unfortunately it burnt down |
 |
| The President visiting the area |
 |
| Thinking of another project |
 |
| Every night the tribe come for bananas drizzled with honey |

Bart, I picked him up in the Reserve. I think an eagle dropped him on his head.
Eventually I had to euthanase him |
 |
| A new dhow being built |

| Not a good idea to fly 3 months pregnant - nice to have friends like these |
 |
| This school was built by a developer in the area - this is the opening |
10 years I spent on this beach.
Before the tarred roads, first two years with no electricity. Minimal people. Silent and unspoilt. I had the best of it before commercialisation.
