Sabi Sands Private Game Reserve

Now, for an interesting change of pace, we decided to do a safari drive outside of Kruger Park. There are plenty of private game reserves (once again, just make sure it’s not one that allows for game hunting…) and you can do a different kind of safari if you choose the private options.

Sunset Safari at Kruger Park

No. You’re not going all the way to South Africa to spend all day at a hotel or spa and not going on a safari.

Una bofetada a pasajeros con demora

En el último, y probablemente uno de los más bizarros episodios de ‘¿Y ahora por qué está Aerolíneas Argentinas en las noticias?’, llegan reportes de que al menos 3 vuelos fueron cancelados y otros 10 se vieron retrasados, aunque los periódicos locales ya reportan que las operaciones están retornando a la normalidad. ¿Cuál fue la razón?
