Herewith the memoria
First time I've seen it now, but it looks a few years old.
It is less than 4 years old -O-

Thank you all for driving a long \O

We have always been lucky at Malopenyana waterhole but this time no animals

Image

We carried on and found our only rhino for the trip. They look very skinny to me

Image

Image

Then this naughty elephant came along and decided he doesn't like these two rhinos

Image

Image

We stopped at "klein Nshawu" but again it was dry. Can't remember when was the last time we have seen water there

Image

Image

Image

Then we found this youngster standing in the road. He didn't like us and charged us a few times but eventually decided to move along

Image

Image

We arrived at Mopani at 4pm O/\ O/\


Next trip to the bush??

Let me think......................

Yes it's less than 4 years old but I've stopped on that bridge plenty times during the past 4 years and I have even photographed the height on the concrete column in the same area on the bridge (also hanging over the railings) O**

Will search for that pic

Caught up, Alf, finally X#X

Love also the S95 as there is always something going on and those views - Sigh O/\

The Letaba had already in February not much water as least that area looks a bit more greener than the Mopani area \O
