My Journey to South Africa (an opening) [01:02]
In the summer of 2011, I, Lawrence Green, Producer and Director of Time Traveling Media, along with my wife, mother, and cousin embarked on a journey to South Africa for vacation. For nearly two weeks we traveled along the coast of Cape Town, visited museums and townships in Johannesburg, and encountered wild animals in Pilanesburg. With my camera in tow, I set out to capture our experience.

FIRST TRIP OF THE SEASON 2011-12 [11:16]
It's great to have customers who don't mind the weather! Leah and Tyron Knott decided to brave the Vaal rapids on a cold spring day - opening our new summer season for us. The sunlight sparkled and a chilly wind blew, but within an hour the day had warmed up. The Vaal co-operated with exciting rapids (small at this time of year but still steep and fast). Lots of leguaans populated the banks, soaking up the sun, and the occasional kingfisher was to be seen trying its luck at dipping and diving. Tom Lackenby, a kayaker from England, pronounced the Vaal to be awesome, while Leah and Tyron wrote to say it was a spectacular weekend. Not too shabby for the first-off trip! Karen led the trip and Shadrach supported her, with Graeme out of action due to the flu. Also on the trip were our learner guides Sidwell, Arno and Fly: the latter pair just back from the Orange River guide expedition. - Graeme 0842452490. yeeha@riverman.co.za

Permacyclists [03:46]
Two ordinary city slickers quit the "real" world and go wandering around the globe. The trip started in 2009 with 16 months cycling in Africa, covering 12000km through 12 countries. After an intense eye-opening experience, we have given up the bikes and are heading from New York down to Rio de Janeiro by bus, hoping to arrive in time for the Rio +20 Earth Summit in June 2012 and filming grassroots environmental organizations along the way.
