Jan and Leachy! :clap: :clap: :clap:

Special thanks to Leachy for posting - the one with the golden sheen on the water is really special!

Will have some of my own to post at the end of next month - booked one night in Skuks after our weekend at Ngwenya - to be able to visit Sunset Dam and Lake Panic! :dance: :dance:
