We'll be supporting the SA Bible Society's latest project 'Two Million Bibles', where every R100 donated will give a Bible and literacy booklet to someone in need.
We hope to offer support to projects run by the Bible Society of Botswana as they strive to aid Bible reading in their communities at large.
We'll be assisting the Zambian Bible Society by helping fund their work in translating and distributing the Scriptures among the needy in their country.
We'll be helping the Malawian Bible Society by contributing towards the funding of Bible distribution projects across Malawi.
We'll be contributing funds to assist with the supply of 50 000 children's Bibles and 20 000 Bibles for prisoners, both projects of the Tanzanian Bible Society.
Funds will be allocated to assist our local Bitou community in need of the Word of God and the renewed hope that comes with it.
After a scrummy brekkie of egg and bacon (bacon … we hadn’t seen bacon in a while) we headed out to start the day’s cycling in the direction of Makuzi Beach, 60 odd k’s away. We’d been looking forward to Makuzi since we entered Malawi so you can imagine our shock and horror when we

So we stayed at Chembe Eagle’s Nest another day, and I rested, but Suzann wouldn’t allow me to cycle until my resting heart rate was satisfactory, in her professional opinion. Hence, it would be her out front on the bike, heading for Senga Bay. Despite the fact that we left quite early from Chembe, she

… and there it came to pass … the runs finally caught up with us … Still thinking that we’d take some time out to take a catamaran trip out to the island in the reserve to snorkel amongst the chiclids, we sat down to a meal at the lodge. The wind was up but

Dedza Pottery Lodge was a great place to stay and we had a good, restful night. Packing up the sky looked purple and bruised, the clouds heavily pregnant with the first rains. A local camper told us the weather forecast had predicted showers from 11am. That would give us a few hours to cycle dry,

… so we never did get to cycle much of a ‘symbolic’ distance on the Great East Road even though the condition of the road did improve from the Luangwa bridge toward Chipata. The reason for this is simply … distance. Chipata is still over 300km from the Luangwa bridge and with the increasing number

So there we were, up before the dawn thought of cracking, to meet our ‘fixer’ at the border at 7am. Chobe Safari Lodge was good to us and it was a bit sad to leave this idyllic spot and drive the 10km to Kazungula. Due to construction on the new bridge at the border, a

Well, the 130km down in the direction of Pandamatenga … again, did not go as smoothly as planned. Don’t get me wrong, we had no major incidents but I was exhausted. Suzann of course, doesn’t know when to quit. Although the dreaded wind was much less, the heat got us. I tried my best to
