Dr Peter, Swan Commander, Pulmnologist, Piano Player, Game Ranger, Elephant Whisperer. After 11 weeks in Swanage I am very sad to be leaving my second home. I hope someday to return for a reunion hopefully with the same swans whom I have shared your home with. I have many highlights of my tine in South Africa. Our Elephant encounter in the Pilanesberg is a memory I shall keep for the rest of my life!!!! Swanage was my home away from home, the family in a foreign land, I have made friends that I hope to keep for the rest of my life. I appreciate all the wisdom and advice you have shared with me over my time in Johannesburg especially in the dark moments, your words of comfort made ALL the difference to me. I wish I had left more time to write something meaningful and compassionate in the Swan Book. But like all good things my time in Swanage must come to an end. So this is no goodbye Father Alan, but farewell for now. I hope you continue to share your love and guidance with future Swans for many years to come. You set a standard as a good human that we all should aspire to. Till we meet again. John Canon June to August 2017. Swanage will be forever in my heart and often on my mind.
