A lecture about the Boer war from 1899-1902,
Much of details for me were new.

Especially that the Rhodes scholarships name…
Was from the same man that during this war gained fame…

He seemed a forerunner of Hitler’s believe…
A racist that caused much grieve.

He controlled the world diamonds and gold,
And financed the entire war we are being told.

It almost seems insane,
To have allowed a scholarship in his name.

I just hope the philosophy is not the same,
As for which this man got his fame.

But then money speaks…
No matter how bad it reeks.

A second lecture today was about game reserve maintenance and life,
By a wildlife conversation expert who lived there with his kids and wife.

His advice was to never trust any animal that is wild,
Because their unexpected attack is more often fatal than mild.

Early evening a chair with a view over the bow of the ship during sunset.
No waves, no sound , any better it could not get.
