No stopping for lions

the long version

This book is the travel diary of Joanne Glynn, written as she journeyed the length and breadth of Africa with her husband of thirty years, Neil, in a custom-built troop carrier. The pair left their very comfortable Sydney home and semi-retirement with the deliberate plan of shaking things up a bit, seeing a lot of wildlife and revisiting places of significance to Neil's youth. From South Africa to Namibia, Tanzania to Mozambique, a colourful parade of characters passes through their lives as they move from country to country, campsite to campsite. The result is a captivating, occasionally ironic and often bitingly funny account of their adventure and their relationship.
