Thanks, guys! X#X


We arrived at LS and booked in, and SMS'd leachy we were at no.6....a bit of a blur...


Unpacked and sat a bit, before GB went for a nap, which wasn't gonna happen...




Anyway, I went to sit on the bench here:

And within seconds leachy scurried over...his cheapo spot was just a few metres away from our luxury unit! --00--




And more sitting on the verandah, with GB getting out of bed politely! 0'





GB: "Hello! Great to meet you again, leachy! O/\ O\/ O0 0/0 "

Le: "Well met, young man!"

RP: " :shock: What happened to laconic?"



Anyway, leachy agreed to allow us to join on an evening drive in HMS Herpes III! ^Q^ ^Q^ ^Q^ ^Q^ O/\

This is a rare honour indeed! Of course we had to sit on the back seat, but still! Wow! \O



One of the quaint idiosynchracies of the new units at Lower Sabie is that you can sit on the loo, open the window, and have a grand view of the camp, and chat to whomever may be passing! 0*\

Maybe copying luxury lodges on a smaller scale? -O-

In this case I was shouting orders at the vehicle loaders! =O:

So off we went! X#X

Notice the lawns are fine...more thanks to the rains, I think, but anyway! \O

The unit is right next to the restaurant/reception...you drive about a kilometre, and are back where you started...so won't recommend it in Peak Season.... 0*\
