Good to hear from you Jock. I’m glad the pain is easing. Take care. How long will you have to stay in the rehab? They have not really told me but we are working on seeing if I can go home. I will require assistance getting to appointments, and they may need to put a ramp to get me up the stair into...

Good morning, Mites Thought I would pop in and give you an update on my progress. I am still in hospital in rehab and doing hydrotherapy in the morning, and physio in a gym in the afternoon. I am generally not feeling as painful as I was last week. At this stage I am still not allowed to place weigh...

Thank you very much Rosemary

We saw this female yesterday and was wondering if she is known. She only had one long tusk, her other one was broken. She had a small calf with her and part of a large herd.

Thank you for all coming on our trip with us, we certainly were blessed with plenty to see and spending time with a special friend and family members made it even better. I thought I would close the trip off with a snap shot on how mother nature takes care of something as big as a giraffe. We did se...

Thanks again for the wonderful comments. The trip is nearing the end and this day always arrives, but the good thing is, we can start planning our next trip. Our last full day in the park we headed out early for a misty morning. A herd of buffalo caught our attention and a few crossed the road inclu...

Thanks so much for the wonderful comments, we certainly have had a wonderful trip. The baby reveal was awesome, as mentioned I baked the cake and iced it and a colleague decorated it. The baby is a little girl. Gender reveal cake.jpeg Right back to Kruger, and it is moving day. Because it is so hard...

We found this Ground Hornbill sitting in a tree calling.

I am working night shift this week so thought I would do another episode this morning. I also have a cake to bake, I have been asked to do a gender reveal which I have been wanting to do for so long, just hope the cake works. Right today Kylstron, Elsa and myself set off with the intension of having...

It is the weekend and the weather looks like I will get to cut the grass and do some weeding so while things are drying off from a little rain overnight, I thought I would add another episode. I also have some friends coming over for an evening around the firepit and enjoying some bunny chow and mal...

Right, back again and I will continue.... IMG_1365.JPG While having lunch at the club house, two troops of Vervet Monkeys declared war over the possession of the golf course.

Hop on the bus, we are going on a safari with Jean, Elsa, Klystron and myself today. Once again it was an early start and a cold one so we were all wrapped up in the warmest cloths Durban people own. The morning started with a stunning sunrise, as only Kruger can provide. IMG_1041.JPG Shortly after ...

A very special cheetah sighting we saw when in Kruger in May/June this year.

Hello all from South Australia, it is a chilly morning but not too bad. The furbabies are all happy having their morning breakfast so I thought I would do another day while enjoying my morning coffee. Thank you for all the kind words, we are half way through our trip so jump on the bus. Today Scotty...

Some of the sightings at Sunset Dam we saw on our recent trip to Kruger in May/June This Grey Heron amused as he was sitting on the back of the hippo that was getting down to business. IMG_9919 resize.JPG He eventually decided he best move to another hippo only to find himself surfing as that hippo ...
