I am standing in front of the restaurant at Letaba with the huge expanse of floodplain in front of me.

Nice thread, Wildtuinman87

I am anywhere, my window open.. listening, feeling.. expectant.... home.

Driving very slowly,windows down,a warm breeze blowing,overpowering smell of the Kruger everywhere,silence (except of course the sound of the engine), impala grazing by the side of the road, a bateleur way up above, no other cars in sight

1. Driving s l o w l y on the S21, feeling the sun, smell the bush and the dust, hear the wind in the leaves.

2. sitting on the deck of tent 16 at LS as evening falls.

Why am I not there

KRUGER May 2013

Tshanga lookout , where you can see tomorrow in the distance .
Pafuri picnic spot .
Various lookouts on the Levuvhu, sitting under huge trees .
The same on the Mpongolo and Shingwedzi rivers .

The sun rising and setting any place in the park.
Smell of the thatch. All the little fires at night.

O my goodness I'm so Kruger Home sick.
Only 27 sleeps to go!!

There is no better smell in the world than thatch and timber in the Kruger!

For me it is sitting with the windows open scouring Sunset Dam looking for the biggest croc on the bank, or sitting at the Afsaal having a toasted sandwich and coffee.... one of my favourite places to stop and eat. (food is one of the thinks always on my mind.....)
