Africa Wild

Some other zebras arrived, I think they avoided the injured one!


These green doves are actually not that easy to photograph!


Look how close the hornbills were!



Serendipity!

My DREAM Kruger vehicle arrived!

Interesting combination again!


And then some of Dwarf's frenemies appeared!

They are perfect, Lis! High, great view, lots of space, easy to drive etc.

Amazing how quickly the baboons colonise water!


Best view!


Wide view!





Richprins deep in thought...

Another wide view, with some warthogs again!



And it was time to say goodbye to our beloved waterhole...

I wonder how many stories this old leadwood could tell?


It was remarkably hot for early August!



We were pleasantly driving along down the tar road to Crocobridge when we put on brakes as our first elephant of the day appeared, when suddenl....



BANG!!!!!!

An elderly couple behind us couldn't stop in time and smacked into us hard!


What can one do? One can see that the Samoosa suffered little damage, as the impact was taken by the towbar!


Nobody was hurt.


I must say, a great vote of thanks to SANParks, who took care of everyone and everything throughout...this game drive vehicle stopped almost immediately, and security came out to take over after that. A thankless job on a public holiday, remember!

We exchanged information and went to the police station in Komatipoort to report, met by an extremely surly and unhelpful lady sergeant, in contrast.


Anyway, off home, after an otherwise wonderful day!

END OF SEGMENT

RP, your kruger trips are always filled with some sort of chaos.

At lease your guys damage looked minimal.
