Thank you Mel \O I forgot to mention Bookworms friend(Pieter) is also joining us and to make it more of a adventure is that he's never been to Kruger :shock: \O

Bookworm can't wait anymore she is so excited.... ;-)

What do you think of Tsendze so far? ;-)
Rodger is on leave but we met Evilina and her husband who says hi

Wow Tsendze is GREAT, unfortunately they were burning the grass in a controled fire and the smoke was really bad, so now we will have to go on other routes that was not burned
:O^
