thiefbadger, Jan, ritad, hilda and Karin...thanks! We were thrilled to see the wild dogs. The dogs were actually walking (running) in the opposite direction of the line of cars so everybody kept on reversing. Being the last in line I decided to make a U-turn, drive for a couple of 100 meters and tha...

Dear MM, Afriphile, ritad, Pumbaa, Jan and hilda: I repeat myself but....thank you for all the positive feedback. Really nice to read! And yes indeed Mlondozi was a sad sighting (albeit also rather spectacular). For the last day we had one extended morning drive around Berg en Dal in mind untill aro...

Dear SurfCindy, hilda, Karin, Pumbaa and ritad: thank you very much for the great feedback. We had lunch at Mlondozi. Always a great place to break up a drive. This time however there seemed to be more people at the picnic place than there was water in the dam. Right in front of the viewing place ab...

Toddelelfe, Jan, Pumbaa, Tessa G, hilda and SurfCindy....you all make me blush! Thank you so much! We left the lion-vulture spot (which was just south of Tshokwane) and took the H10. We felt totally chuffed with what we had seen and I told my mum we would "recover" from the excitement whil...

Kaapsedraai, Philip 1, ritad, Cape of Storms, hilda, KrysnaM, Karin, Pumbaa, MM, Jan and Tessa!!!! I repeat myself but...thx for being on the bus and for your positive feedback. Sorry you had to wait so long for day 5. A busy period and, being belgian, a sad and horrendous period are cause of the de...

Thx for the comments Brawler O, Pumbaa, MM, Jan, Kaapsedraai, Tessa, Karin, ritad and KrysnaM. Brawler: the fish pic will end up on the wall of our new kitchen. All: make no mistake about it: we were thrilled with our leopard experience. And besides, Kruger would make it up with us that same evening...

Kaapsedraai, Jan, Karin, Ladybirder, MM, manicwalker and Tessa. Thx! I am also pretty chuffed with the sunset pic. Clouds can do miracles you know. But as already said, it is the fish pic that is my favorite. On with day 4. For our last morning drive from lovely Letaba we decided to see what the Min...

Kaapsedraai, Pumbaa (welcome), Tessa and Karin: merci beaucoup! Muchas gracias! After a refreshing break @ Mopani restcamp we headed back south to Letaba. The afternoon brought us... another lone ranger from up close, https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1597/25406944862_b4efd0dd75_c.jpg reedbuck (too fas...

Ladies and gentlemen, you all make me blush! Cape of Storms, Tessa, Jan, ritad, Manicwalker and Karin! THANK YOU! When having breakfast at Mooiplaas picnic place we heard hippo snorting and grumping a bit further (out of sight). So after breakfast we checked out the little loops close to the picnic ...

Thank you phhun, MM, Kaapsedraai, Karin, Jan, hilda and Surfcindy! Day 3: wednesday 20th of october. I was looking forward to this day!

We left camp a couple of minutes after gate opening time and headed north along the Letaba river. Waterbuck apl...

Kaapsedraai, manicwalker, ritad, Ladybirder, SurfCindy, Cape of Storms, Cheetahlady, Karin, MM, Jan and hilda! Thank you so much for the compliments. The sighting was indeed very special since they were so close and yet calm. It was next to a busy road. At first it was really busy but we just waited...

Cape of Storms, Jan and hilda! Don't thank me! It's a pleasure to share.
