David and Charlie's South African Safari 2007

This has been a long time coming, It's taken many, many, many hours to put this video together and I still think there is a lot of room for improvement but if I don't post this now, I probably never will.  The thing is, its keeping me from doing other stuff or experimenting on other projects.

In 2007 David, Sue, William and Charlie were all meant to come on holiday to South Africa, but at the last minute William became ill and could not travel, so Sue decided to stay home with him and allow David and Charlie to still come because flights, accommodation and arrangements had already been made.  It was a whirlwind 10 day holiday which was all planned down to a tee by Carol.  This was the itinerary:
