There is literally no Surface water in the Kgalagadi and the water the animals drink from Boreholes supplied is very Brak. So when it rains hard in the night large puddles appear in the road ..full of nice fresh rainwater. These Cheetah youngsters made the most of it in the sunrise light with the River mist rising..I guess a click on the image will show the Golden colours properly

Never seen cheetah on the S100 but we have seen 4 on a kill on the H6. ;-) Also try the S128 (seen them twice there) and the S28 is where everyone else sees them. ;-)
..In the Centre of the Kruger the H7 turning into the S36 to Muzandzene is BEST in Park for Cheetah . S100 is a great Dove road IMO
