flying over africa

this photo was sent to me by a dear friend and is the perfect introduction to the kiwi pilots i have been seen with watching football and having dinner with. am getting a inside look at the tourism industry of the air, and learning about different types of planes. Also we are planning a tutorial in the hakaa football chant performed by the all-black world renoun rugby team. Julian and Thom both come from New Zealand's south adn north islands perspectively. they have come to africa to be bush pilots and fly vacationers into national parks and get free game drives. lots of certified pilots come from all around to rack up hours on small planes and slowly work there way up to jumbojets. one blond beligan named nikolas, lives in the serengeti national park on lake seronera. julian has worked in botswana, almost gets trampled on a regular basis by bull elephants and never cries, not even in the cinema. thom says bro frequently and has two half moon shaped scars where he had lung surgury. on a trip to kipepeo beach they had a breath holding contest and julian was the victor by about 5 sec. i will to stow away in a baggage compartment on one of the overnight trips and go on a safari.
