Hi, I will start here a videotrip through KrugerPark that I filmed in December 2012 and January 2013. I have about 20 ours of film and Yvonne took about 18000 photo,s. There was a lot of tension in the park and animals were quite nervous. We had heatwaves and lots of rain. On the end of our trip we were in Olifants camp and heard the terrible news about the flood and about the disaster wat was happening with Shingwedzi camp. The only road that we could drive was the road between Olifants and Phalaborwa so we had a save trip home. Yvonne and I think a lot of all the people that faced the danger of the flood and about the hole Krugerpark that changed completely. We only filmed and took photo,s of the Olifants river that was swollen into a big river. We hope you will like our videotrip. In the first video, you will see some moments of our encounters with the wildlife of Krugerpark. :wink:

Nico, that was just marvelous.

I loved the bird sounds, as did my cats. Now I just want to jump in my car and hit the road.

sigh.

Looking forward to Shingwetzi
