Over this past summer, the Michael W Travels family spent a few weeks traveling around Africa, visiting a bunch of different countries.
After arriving in Johannesburg, we flew to Lesotho the following day. Here is what we did during our short, 3 night visit to the landlocked Kingdom of Lesotho! Continue reading 64 Hours in the Landlocked Kingdom of Lesotho!
Over the summer, we took an almost three week trip to Africa. While there, we spent time in South Africa, Lesotho, Eswatini, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Botswana and Ethiopia.
While we try not to buy too many souvenirs anymore, I was hoping to find a nice mask for my collection and some worthless, high denomination currency from Zimbabwe. Continue reading I Came Back From Africa A Trillionaire!
In August 2022, we took an almost 3-week trip to Africa. During the trip, we visited 6 countries. Sadly, only one of them had a McDonald’s.
