I am actually in the process of planning my first African safari for 2011. While my airfare is already taken care of (I have about a zillion frequent flyer miles accumulated with British Airways - from my business travel), I am undecided for which plains game I want to hunt (I want to start off with plains game, both from a budgetary and experience perspective). I have been researching outfitters/PHs in both South Africa and Namibia and have made some notes on what are my preferences.
Of course....there is always the wife to convince to allow me to go away for 7 to 10 days and leave her and my 5-year old daughter at home alone. But that is nothing new, as I travel to the UK and other places for 2 to 3 weeks at a time.
