Welcome to the Not Yet Decrepit Traveller blog.
I am trying to see and experience everything I can of this wonderful world of ours, before I fall off my twig.
Combining my two loves of photography and writing, in this blog I am sharing our travel experiences with a touch of humour.

TSWALU PART 3
Home went three very satisfied photographers. We headed to the lodge with its impressive central column.
