Thank you for this love trip report Val and Dungy! Beautiful pictures of what you saw, regular updates of your comings and goings, a fabulous time so far! :clap:

Enjoy your time at the coast, and we are looking forward to finally meeting you in person close to the end of April! :dance:

Love all your birdie pics, Val, at Lake Panic and also the pied kingfisher. And he's a gorgeous lion even if he doesn't have much mane.

It was great to meet you both and hopefully I will see you again in Pretoria. I've already booked the afternoon off

Hard to imagine that this amazing day by day report is coming to an end!
but you have done a marvelous job in detailing your daily drives, sightings, meets, ups and downs, not that there were many downs.
We were so privileged to have been able to spend some time with you both and be a small part of that 4 months in paradise.
