Great to be back, at least virtually Hope you also managed to see the meerkats on Ubejane at some Point The squirrels down there are rather bold in any case But cute
Love the antelope scenery on Rooiplat. Nothing better than a landscape like that dotted with animals
Hope you found the lions later on! The Kids look quite anticipating and it would be a shame to disappoint them
Because of the building going on, we booked the guesthouse again for next year. Let's just hope the electricity holds up, so we don't have to put up with the Generator again instead of the much longed for silence under a star-lit sky

Re: Frost, Fires & Family Time
A small covered section would be a good idea Alf. Assuming it doesn't rain then of course it's nice to be in the sunshine, but unfortunately at this time of year the patio area was almost entirely in shade for our unit.Alf wrote:The units are spacious for a 4 bed unit
I just wish they could build some sort of roof over the patio area because every time we were there it rained and I struggled to braai
Oh that noise from the construction could be horrible if one just wants to relax at camp during the day
That yellow thing is called a TLB. All heavy equipment in construction are normally yellow so it stands out for a safety point of view.
Yellow safety makes sense
Thanks Lis. There are bar stools to eat at the counter insideLisbeth wrote:Nice kitchen, but there is no way that you can eat inside, with that low table
Nice fire place and lovely kids

I do hope that the guesthouse is a better experience for you next time! Are you going to be back in Addo as well?

Re: Frost, Fires & Family Time
Seeing an aardwolf is absolutly fantastic and it did not even run away. You got it close up which is marvelous I have never seen photos of that kind of an aardwolf sighting before

Re: Frost, Fires & Family Time
Absolutely brilliant, PJL!
Really never seen proper wild aardwolf pics like that!
Wonder if we have an aardwolf thread?
Accommodation looks great....chicken in the firepace?

Re: Frost, Fires & Family Time
It seems that there were some technical difficulties with the last instalment and it has since disappeared
I'll re-write shortly...
