Honestly for me the draw to visit KTP comes not so much from the animal sightings but the landscape, the views, the different sounds and basically the overall different experience to Kruger. The excitement of trying something new and different.


I couldn't have put it better, Oddesy.
We will visit in Sept after 35years of Kruger!!
Getting very excited :dance: :dance:
Meanwhile I'm reading every TR on KTP I can find!! :whistle: :whistle:

This is why i cant get enough*** :dance:



It starts when your feet touch the red sand...
The lion roaring in the distance...
The solitude you experience...
The dry Kalahari wind softly whistling around the corners of you tent...
And the fresh animal tracks each morning...waiting to be discovered...
Everything tells a different story...
Vultures usually death...and a small green leaf..The promise of life...
The million dollar sunset...
And a billion dollar sunrise...
From the small whistling rat to the king of the Kalahari...
If you have those thoughts, feelings or experience..

That is when you know you have fallen hard for the soft Kalahari dunes...

At the moment that should read "The wet Kalahari wind roaring around & flattening the corners of your tent..."
