Hi John, It was lucky that we had you as our morning guide and that we mentioned that our Azambezi Hotel could not get us a booking for the Lion Alert program. Thanks to whatever you did or whomever you contacted we were surprised and delighted that you managed to get us on that particular tour as we only had one day before we left for home in Canada. I have patted adult pandas, held a Lesser panda, a koala and a young kangaroo but walking with lions tops my list of animal experiences. Can't thank you enough. What a privilege! We also enjoyed the video made of us and have shown it to family and friends. We were thrilled that the staff also took photos on our individual cameras. They were wonderful to have as I write a photo-journal and send it to many friends. Cheers, Wendy...and Brad Franklin
