Terry, what I learned is that I should have gone sooner. What an absolutely phenominal hunting trip. I enjoyed every minute after getting off of the plane. I was actually sad and depressed when my PH left me at the airport for my return trip home.
All of the people I made contact with were great. My PH (and 2 other PH's) and I hit it off well right away. We stayed in contact upon my return to the states and they just came to visit and spent a week at my house.
In all honesty Terry, there would be little that I would do different when I return. I did tweak my packing list just slightly to include a couple additional items and also to leave a couple of others behind.
Two pieces of advice that I took from this thread were keeping a daily journal and packing clothes for a hunt in my carry on. Fortunately, my luggage arrived on time and the clothes in the carry on didn't matter, but a great idea none the less. I will enjoy looking back in the journal to remember some of the details that otherwise would have been forgotten.
I will be returning soon to take additional plains game and also to pursue lion. (Lioness I should clarify, as a male is a bit expensive for my checkbook.) (I have posted another question on this forum in reference to the next trip regarding 375 H&H vs. 375 Ruger.)
