Dzombo back in the bush

Post by Dzombo »

Hi All,
Well i have just spent an incredible 5 nights in Kruger.
2 in B &D, 1in Skukuza, and then back to B & D for another 2.

To be honest, i don't really remember which roads we did on each drive. (i did 3 drives a day), so I think i am going to discuss each road by road. A bit of a different trip report.

I will prob start properly when I get back to the UK in 10 days.
But to give you a taster, I saw all the Big 5. On 1 occasion, all on one 4 hour drive. And I saw dogs.
General game though was a bit scarcer than i had expected. But the bush was quite thick and it rained for 2 days we were there.

To be continued........

Sometimes it’s not until you don’t see what you want to see, that you truly open your eyes.

I did a lot of driving. A lot. Over 1,000km in 5 days.
General sightings (zebs, wildebeest etc) were few and far between in the South. It could be because the bush was thick. And it also rained for almost 24 hours.
In fact i was a bit dissapointed as the sand roads to the east of the H3 were closed for a day or so because of the rain. There are just so many times you can drive up and down the H3!
Some drives I did, all I saw were Impala. Literally. And on another drive (last one of the trip) i saw all of the Big 5 in about 4 hours.

God put me on earth to accomplish a certain amount of things. Right now I'm so far behind that I'll never die.
