Superb shots again, Peej! O\/

You must make the kids change the tyre then...toughens them up! :yes: \O

Well done SANParks chap for sorting the puncture...what type of tyres are they? X#X

Thanks everyone for the comments \O \O

After all the tyre issues there hadn't been much time to relax, but taking in these views is good for the soul :-)

Image

We took an afternoon drive along the main road with the aim to be around the Link road later in the evening in case the lions popped out again. Fairly soon after leaving camp we saw a big buffalo bull disappearing into the bushes. It wasn't a great photo opportunity but this quick snap was the only buffalo we saw this trip

Image

On Ubejane loop there was a jackal wandering around in a similar place to the day before O:V

Image

A short while later this ostrich looked very fluffy! lol

Image

The link road was pretty quiet with just a few mountain zebra along the way.

Image

There was no sign of the lions, despite waiting a while as well as exploring the area where they had last been seen. We decided it would be best to continue up to Rooiplaat where we were treated to some nice close sightings of black wildebeest and blesbok O/\

Image

Image

The rest of the drive was quiet, so we were back in good time to meet Michael to get our nicely fixed tyre.... it was then great to enjoy a nice braai as the sun sank over the mountains O:V X#X

:shock: I'm totally captivated by those male lions... They are SERIOUSLY handsome!
We only ever saw the one that was a bit shy for you and already thought that he was
a real beau, but his mate is even more fortunate, IMO :-0

Puncture, aka flat :O^ Glad Mister Minute knew a way to get it fixed quickly
(a rather rare feat in Mountain Zebra I learned last year lol )
