Caught up again!

That stork.....somehow it looks quite happy with the crocs around so MM could very well be right.

Kudus - male and female are such majestic antelope.

The braai is making me feel hungry......love that quick blue cheese sauce!

Just managed to get on the bus!

It is a long time since I was last in KTP but your pics bring back many memories and I can almost smell the dust and sand.
As always - beautiful pics and already Cheetah.....that is fantastic!

You will only be about 80kms from Addo. Alternatively check on the internet if there are not com...

Really looks fantastic!

It is confusing - even to the staff!! In June I was in Shingwedzi and, very stupidly, assumed that their times would be the same as Giyani.......oh no! somehow they fall under Phalaborwa :doh: :doh: Fortunately they had a generator and - if you have a modem with you - cell phone and internet albeit ...

National Parks are an oasis of calmness in a chaotic world

Kikat1953 - I do agree with you that a Spa in the smaller camps (eg Orpen) bush camps and gates (??) does not make much sense. In the larger camps such as Skukuza - yes! these are camps that will attract the majority of visitors and therefore, might make a Spa a viable monetary proposition. However,...

On board as well
