Alarm goes off, get up, put the kettle on, bathroom (loo, face wash, teeth), get dressed, fill flask, grab rusks, bins and books and we are in the car 15 minutes after the alarm goes off, ready to face the world. Careful placement of bins, books, rusks and clothes the night before and we can have a few more minutes in bed.

You guys amaze me. An hour or so we need...

You guys just made my day!!!! Tears are running down my cheeks.

Bush BAptistNever any curlers. In Kruger we become one of nature.

Snow Zee[color=#000000]IT must have been us but on that day. Always dress to kill. I strongly suggest a pajama drive for you.

Would love to test drive the pith helmet and leopard print tights. Any uther suggestions welcome.

Girafee: We also do it in the winter as we like our winter pajamas and we always wear the same. We have 3 sets of winter pajamas that are the same. Some people think we are twins and some think we are crazy in the evening when we leave the showers. The reason we do it if any animal spots us he will think he had to much to drink or going bananas or has double vision.
I also but on a beany or hat. No shades as we both weaR SPECS.
We don't mind chatting.

Fanta: Also do night patrols in pajamas and armed with a spotlight.

Gamespotter: will be looking out next time for the kalahari lion with the yellow teeth stalking BAFFELS. In KRuger.

Advice to you all. Just try it ones. The animals don't mind. Wear youre jammies.

Come on guys there must be more to be told! Don't be scared we are all like family!

Did you post a mugshot yet?

And we wonder why baboons turn their heads away from us.

Will be posting a mugshot as soon as we get back from out trip in july.

If people do it when taking the kids to school why not for your early morning drive in KNP. I did it before but put a tracksuite over my pj's - what if a traffic officer stops me and I need to get out of the car, the poor animals will run all the way to Maputo.

I leave all the stuff like cameras, binos, scorebook, etc in the car. Just put something on before venturing outside with the day's nosh and we're off. Oh yes, I have to help Jerry to remember the amarula for the coffee I get on the way from the camp kitchen (water that is).

to all of you.

OBIE - specs you say. With those 'uno-uniforms' 'patrolling' camp you must look like a spectacle..

Next time I'm going on a morn' or sunset drive I'm taking a nose clip...

Packed and ready to go.

Nose clips - checked

Hi Elzet
Enjoy your trip to the park. Best packing list I have seen.
I mthink the frilly pajamas will do the thing. Cats love them.
Enjoy at least one pajama morning drive.
Don;t forget the beanie and sunglasses.

Why dont you just get up 15 min. earlier?

Take a pic for the mugshot thread

Travel safe...have fun & great sightings!!!
