My little Mojo has been on safari this week. She was fed up with the rain that we have been having here. She saw an ad in the paper that read "Camouflage Boot Camp" "learn from the experts how to blend in". So just like that, Wednesday morning, she packed her little rucksack and off she went. She has sent me a picture of her with some of her new girlie friends... Arjana the leopard, Kagiso the giraffe and Themba the gorilla.
My little Mojo says they nearly fell out when they all spotted a cupcake on the path leading back to the camp. It was a bit of tussle to see who could nab the cupcake before the others... My little Mojo says there was no contest really Kagiso, swooped in with her long neck and cruuuuuuuuuuum the cupcake was gone.. Apparently giraffe's go mad for cupcakes especially when there is a cherry on top.
