On an unrelated note...
My favorite thing I got while in South Africa (besides the memories)...

May look out of place when I wear it, but never worry about the sun and venting keeps the head from sweating too much.... Always have it with me anytime I know I am going to be out in the sun for any length of time.
Nice headgear. I have a huge collection of offbeat baseball caps. They are my souvenir "treat" to myself when I travel. I try to find something of local interest, not the ugly commercial tourist crap that you find in souvenir shops all over the place. I found a great "Wasatch" hat in Midway, Utah once. I used to hike in the Wasatch Mountains with a girlfriend long ago and always liked that name. A local asked where we lived. When I told her I was from out of the area, she asked me why I was wearing the local high school cap!
Did you get the vest to go with your hat?
