As the sun sets on 2012… the future 2013 hopefully will be one of happiness, prosperity, and fun and laughter.
The beauty of 2012 will carry over to 2013… the visits to Augrabies, the Orange river, the Kalahari and so many other places are planned to continue….
and as the birds fly West towards the sunset let tomorrows sunrise bring us all everything we wish for…..
Tomorrows Sunrise will see the start of 2013… HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL… may it be a good one…
Will be back soon … two more weeks on a walk about in a hot Kalahari…. wonderful…..

Happy New Year. Enjoy your time in the Kalahari. I’ve just finished a trip in the Aussie Outback
Thanks … these type trips makes one realise that there is more than grass and trees…
Very Happy New Year to you bulldog and thanks for all the wonderful photos and thoughts that you share. Warmest wishes for 2013! Ruth
Thanks Ruth.. may yours be an adventurous one…
MAGNIFICENT!! Happy New Year to you and ALL of your loved ones
Good sunsets are a feature of the Kalahari… but struggling with the horses, in this heat they all hide under the trees… but will get something… Happy New Year to you that side of the world where it is a little cooler than here…
Can’t wait…..On the way to New Years Eve dinner, I “googled” the Kalahari and read the info to my husband…sounds like a dream world, stay cool friend!
Thanks for a wonderful blog. Wishing you health and success into 2013 and beyond.
Thank you so much and may yours be all you wish for.
Happy New Year to you and your family Bulldog! I’m so pleased to be able to follow along on your adventures.
Thank you… got so much to share when we return…
Looking forward to it. Have a wonderful trip.
Fabulous photos, bdt. Enjoy the rest of your time in the hot Kalahari. Happy New Year to you and your family. xx
Thank you… you would probably enjoy a bit of this heat, or does Florida not get that cold…
Wonderful post..I wish to you & yours a very Happy New Year
Thank you and may your year be a good one…
Beautiful pictures! Happy New Year friend.
Thank you… where we are now is probably very similar to where you live…
Probably not this morning! We had frost this morning! Strange!
Happy New Year to you and yours and wouldn’t you like to have some of our snow? hehe
Thank you.. may your year be successful with such great photography… but keep the snow I love the heat…
Awesome photography as always! Happy New Year! (hurry up and come back, Bulldog, I miss ya!)
Thank you so much… I do miss all the blogs and with so little air time I hate to think what I’m missing…

A wonderful New Year and an even better 2013 to you and your family Rob. So jealous of your Kalahari walkabout – hoping to do the same next August/September! Have you ever considered collating your pictures into calendars? Laura
No on the calender… but one has to do the Kalahari walk about… it is so beautiful and there is so much more to see than what one expects… hot as hell but lovely… enjoying every minute… have a good one…
Nice shots!!! Happy New Year!!!
Thank you and the same to you…
Happy New Year !!!

Happy New Year, bro. Cheers!
Same to you Buddy…
Have a wonderful New Year’s Eve, Bulldog
And the same to you… will probably be more in the pool than out of it tonight… lovely and hot….
May your lens find many more sunrises and sunsets.
Ohhhh I have so many… the Kalahari is the place to capture them…
Looking forward to seeing you photos.
And from western Canada too, we wish you all the best for a wonderful new year.
Thank you so much…
And to you too, my dear – health and happiness, and lots more adventures in your dramatic and beautiful country. I love the (notion of the) shot of the birds flying West toward tomorrow
Thank you… have so many photos from this trip and still have 2 weeks to go….
Hi,
Beautiful photos, I especially liked the first one, with the sunset colours on the water.
A Very Happy New Year to you as well.
Thank you so much… I have better than that , but holding back for a full post of just sunsets… the Kalahari produces some of the best in the country…
I wish you a wonderful New Year Bulldog – I am so glad to have met you.
Thank you Julie and I’m so glad to have found your blog as well… May 2013 be a special year for you and Ant, and of cause Ming and Gutsy9… have a good one… it is probably 2013 there by you when I’m typing this…
An hour and a half left – can’t wait for the new year!
Happy New Year to you Bulldog
Thanks so much….have a good one…
