I shall never forget this morning drive, everything new as said, which is unusual for me so my brain has to take a back seat! :ty:


These cars were probably staff on business...deserted! :-0

And round the corner is Shipandane Hide - a very nice spot indeed! \O

The causeway you come in on is on the right there, and I don't think the Tsendze River ever goes dry, to be honest! :no:

I saw a bigfoot! :shock: :shock: :shock:

And one goes just a couple of km further and one gets to Pioneer Hide on the dam! :-0 :-0 :-0



Euphorbia trees!

One stops at the dam wall, and it is not really clear where one is allowed to walk or not, so great fun! O\/

Lots of birds, and it was EXTREMELY cool and pleasant after the hammering the sun gave us the previous day! 0:

I think one should maybe put up a crocodile sign, though? -O- O-/

Here is where leachy, Frewells and Dwarf were still snoring away on the other side of the dam...one of them is our palace!

-O-

One can see the dam is about as low as it gets, I think it is the biggest remaining earth dam in Kruger? It is MUCH older than the camp! X#X


I see there is a fish eagle at our house! :shock:
