Sorry Amedeus; not yet. Imberbe, are you gonna let the man suffer, or should we let him get it eventually: after all, you have to admire his resilience.

It would be highly unfair of anybody else to give the correct answer now ... :naughty:

That's what I thought too. Amedeus, you're closer to the winning line than you might realise. It's a small park on the west coast of South Africa. Think carefully, as you've covered everything else in that area, except for one.

Some statistics: :big_eyes:

20 out of a possible 21 parks have been "guessed".
2 parks were guessed twice.
Kruger National Park is the only park that has not been guessed!

In other words ..... :lol: Image

YES, YES, YES, YES!!! UH-HUH, UH-HUH, UH-HUH!!!

That's it, Amedeus. Well done! :clap: :clap: :clap: I said I admire your persistence; I still do.

Yes, Namaqua National Park is in an area that has the greatest density of succulent plants in the world!

YOU'RE IT!! :thumbs_up:

Ooopppssss! :redface: :redface: :redface: :redface:
I saw the quiver trees and my brain shut down. Oddesy got the Park right, but the plants half-right, but as this is about guessing the Park, I guess you're right. Sorry everyone - enjoyed the journey though. I'll be more vigilant next time, I promise ...

ODDESY, YOU'RE IT! :clap: :clap:

(Which still doesn't detract from your persistence, Amedeus. If there was an award for that, I'd confer it.)
