However, the sun was beginning to peek out now and then, and traffic was increasing a lot, so I ordered a detour down the quiet S-30 on the other side! ..0..

The idea was to sit at the first loop and rest a bit in the shade... O:V


It is remarkable as it has the shadiest trees one can get, Red Ivory trees, and the dense stand is quite unique! ^Q^

There are lots of other trees too!

The proper name for the trees is natal Mahogany, and these fast-growing evergreens are common in Lowveld towns, and extensively planted in restcamps. They rarely get this big, however! :shock:

Some German Tourists arrived and I began bothering them, so BL suggested we leave. This is one of the views to the river...useless in summer but nice in the dry season! :yes:
