| I forgot to mention that the SAKKS pond safaris are open to the public!!!!
So you dont need to be a SAKKS member to come to the pond safaris and you also dont need to be a SAKKS member if you wish to share your pond with us.
Everyone are welcome. |

| Ek kan met my GPS search/adres/show on map en dan details
Of op internet gaan na http://maps.google.co.za/ Sit die adres in onder Search, byvoorbeeld 53 Malgas street Zoom in regsclick op die spesifieke posisie Click "What's here" click op groen pyltjie (as hy nie verskyn, zoom in) dan kry jy dit in grade en in desimale formaat
Jy kan ook die grade formaat "convert" na desimale formaat of andersom op http://www.123marbella.net/gps.coordinates/
'n GPS gee gewoondlik die grade formaat en kaarte die desimale formaat. |

| Thank you to all who opened their ponds for viewing and to Wayne who organised the safari. And, a big thank you to Henk for giving everybody some brine shrimp and a bottle of Sludge away and Ammonia/Nitrite reduction. Henk and Gerald from this forum import these products and have a large range of interesting pond products available. If you are interested, please send them a PM. Also thanks to Quinton who provided boerewors rolls and beverages afterwards. The safari was a great success. |

I have to agree, this was the first SAKKS pond safari in the western cape in 3 years and i think it went down very well. We had a very good attendace and everyone seemed to have enjoyed the outing. If there is anyone in the western cape that want to show their pond please contact me. Please also feel free to send me some positive suggestions. Wayne |
