That might be the breakfast of :angel: , but what you have there in your left hand is the breakfast of :evil: !

Nee-nee Heksie, :naughty: rather stop with that bad habit and save all that money - for Kruger trips! :dance: :wink:

The three kings - we've had the privilage of meeting them on that road before - they don't seem to mind the attention. What a way to start a rainy day! :dance:

Nice to see the Rhino enjoying the rain.... :lol:

Lovely wet Lion brothers :thumbs_up: ....you have been very lucky that nothing happend to your mom while she was taking pictures out of the window and the Lion passed by. 8) :pray:


Ag mum would have tasted gagga :twisted: After one bite they would have spat her out and then I would have heard the whole time that she had a better leon experience than I did :mrgreen:
And the rhino loved it, looked like a teenager having a lekker mudshower :D

WOW - that's a really great sighting of some very wet lions :big_eyes: :dance: Great that the one came out again :clap: :clap:


At least they didn't smell like wet dog :wink: Ya just went through mum's photos and saw how gagga it was with them walking on the side just behind small trees-no photo opportunities, so they getting in the road was a blessing :thumbs_up:

WOW Heksie.

You got some very beautiful pics there of the Kings. You must be lucky about having such a great sighting and Lions all around you. Must be great,

Thanks for sharing :gflower:


Was a great moment for me as they are my absolutely favorite animal and I never get to be so close to them. I really was blooming the rest of the day because of this sighting. And they entertained enough in such a short period that it was exciting also.

Thanks for the hug Heksie! I love hugs! :D

What a lovely picture of you! Typically Heksie .... always friendly, always with a nice smile! That's my Heksie! :clap: :clap:

Gorgeous sighting of the Rhino enjoying the rain! I hope the Zebra's pajamas got a good rinse in the rain!:D

And just after that cute little "ET" face of the Terrapin, the awesome Lion sighting! Beautiful pictures! Thank you!! :dance: :dance:

I can just picture your Mom freezing with the kitty so close to her! :lol:


Hugs are underrated :thumbs_up:
Nah, in the Kruger that is 100% true that I'm always a friendly witch but eish it is hard in the city to always smile :wall:
I hope so because brown does nothing for their complexion :tongue: imagine that zebs were brown and black :slap:
Ya mum said the moment was too big for her, but she re cooperated and was ready for round 2, which is coming up next...

Ya it woke me up instantly and made me all up and ready for another 180km :tongue: I think that is actually the amount of km's we rode as I never had to refill the tank the whole weekend :hmz:
Amarula is definitely a requirement for any Kruger trip :rtm: Otherwise you won't be blessed with amazing sightings :whistle:
Mum was very excited and she did even after the big moment enjoy the sighting alot, we spoke about it along the way that it was out most exciting sighting of the trip :thumbs_up:

Eish Bushbuddies, now that is asking a bit much from the puffy witch :wall: Give me time as I do want to stop soon but not now :hmz: And the saving for more trips does sound like quite the good enough reason to stop the habit :thumbs_up:
So we shared the trio :dance: Would love to walk. drive maybe be the safer bet, into them with my upcoming trip :pray:
