Camping out on Safari
15
There's nothing quite like it for sharpening your senses and heightening your aware-
ness of Africa. Sleeping under the stars is a soulful experience and the antithesis of the
modern world's clamour - an infinity of stars, the crackle of the campfire, the immensity of
the African night. But it's not for the faint-hearted, with wind whistling in the guy ropes,
the not-so-distant roar of a lion, and the knowledge that only flimsy canvas separates you
from an angry hippo.
