I feel the same way!

A week in Pilanesberg is too long for me, I get bored with driving the same roads all the time.

Any amount of time in the KNP is too short.

Not sure how I'm going to get along with the KTP in June, there are only 4 roads in the place.

Ya, a week would be too long - we normally only go up to Pilanesberg for the day, although I wouldn't mind staying overnight occasionally.

Very good, BT!

Well-identified there regarding the rhino! $\O$

Those agamas love running around the tree...sort of "if I can't see you, you can't see me!" -O

Thanks for the camera advice! Mine just says Auto...or more normally the "shaky hands" setting"! $O\/$

I'm sure you could have stretched this report out more! Now I have to get back to mine!

Thanks so much for all the info BT. We will certainly practice what you preach.

Ahem - maybe I must disagree with you on this point but then again us okes from Pretoria are used to riding around the same roads every day. All the others are so full of potholes.

What a great trip you had, and super sightings.
Love your blackie...

I seemed to have done a better job just when I got my camera.... nowadays I really battle to them unblurred.. -O -O

only half way round the tree... that's a bargain BT, they usually either keep going around, up the tree or run away for me $0*\$
