I am canny, not uncanny!

On we went, dawdling as the route took us...it was actually cloudy and chilly again, very pleasant!

Aha!!!

This is the latest Kruger road, unless one counts Pumbaa's imaginary one, and very fancy!

It is a one-way from the H1-4 to we were not sure where, and I see now it has a 30 speed limit!

It follows the Ngotso stream, and is actually the same as any dirt road, so I don't know why it is one-way?

All sorts of loops too, and lovely colours!

This fever tree had fallen over in previous years, and there was an AW inspector to monitor its progress! $\O$

And then this rather amazing sequence...

2 Homework questions:

A: What is the number of this road?

B: What tree is the giraffe eating?

The fever tree has only three dead branches, but they will probably increase, being a fever tree

Nice pics with the Baboon $\O$

A.: S147 leading to the S89.

B: Jackal-berry

Interesting pics of the fever tree.

Dirt road travelling

Now you are doing trees

Hint: A typical drainage line tree - reliable october-browsing tree for giraffe - pale grey bark - rather tall

Love the giraffe shots, Richprins $\O$

Unfortunately that road so far was always closed when we wanted to drive same

Yes, Lis, it is the S147!

What is the tree, though?

I don't think that it's a Natal-Mahogany
