Ok so,....(Heh he hi the Bob chicken, ddoo doo doo) hehehe,

yah, most of the day was spent in camp. Punda Maria has
become a jewel in it's own right. Great camp and setting
and this time round the hide fulfilled it's purpose, I notice
water been directed to fill the pond/mud bath/dam.

There is much to be seen at Punda Maria. Beautiful
birds, mammals and even mense of all creeds.

Interesting how that waterhole has reformed itself...at the beginning it was just a muddy mess....what would that be, about 8 years now? :-?

Nice sightings!

Not even three years RP. Last we were here as you said,
just a muddy mess. There was little water then, I think.

The problem with road corrugation is that somehow
it has a numbing effect on senses.

This problem sets in faster and takes over the senses
quicker as one slows down for relief. This kind of road
causes fatigue faster in a catch 22 situation.

More speed more grumble, less speed more rumble!!!

In the park the limits are 40+ a little!!!, 50+ for the
locals, I'm not into the sciences exactly what the cause
of road corrugation is but nonetheless I slowly wobbled
to a standstill, my senses in tatters.

Could have turned the wheel either way! I was shot!

One can overcome this disposition by simply applying
speed, heck this is Kruger!! Just stared at SO.

Obviously some foul remarks just fell from the beak,...
