Trust me Cindy it will be HOT in the afternoons.It changes quickly.

We are at the beginning of the hot and rainy summer months. Hopefully early enough to have no rain as it increases with the rainiest months being January and February.

Madikwe is normally much cooler than the Sabi Sands area but was actually warmer at Madikwe than Sabi Sands during ROAR. It was also VERY dusty as Madikwe had not had rain since APRIL.

Madikwe is at a high elevation one of the reasons there is no malaria and it is usually a lot cooler. Both big things to consider when going in November.

While they were cold in Sabi Sands on ROAR in November it will hot and more humid in Sabi Sands. Donna and Alan are going into the Sabi Sands first and Marcie, Tom, Frank and Carla are going to Sabi Sands when we are in Madikwe. I have told them to take Malarone for the mosquitoes and be prepared for the heat.

We all need to be prepared for the heat of the day. After lunch return to our air conditioned rooms and take naps and for the hearty a game of pooch while drinking whatever cool drink - floats your boat.
