Always wondered what those little alcoves in a chalet were for, nana...office! ..0..

Tv but no aircon... :O^

Nasty killer butterflies there in the desert! :shock:

Rare leguan there, if I recall?

Looks like a good spot there in camp, did you order it?

and now something to prepare a little bit at the worst... ;-) lol

A Shaft-tailed Whydah makes an appearance and I observe beautiful flowers running along a large trunk. There, too, cars stopped and left immediately.

Before the 13th Hanri and the gang is there, ready to rush to ensure the menu of the day. We are less than ten cars, I am well placed and on the left side of the road. A smarter, comes to park at my side preventing others from moving. For me, it is unthinkable to move myself one cm for the next 10 minutes. !!!!!

Image all take their place

Image almost ready

Image and more...

Image all....

Image ... well almost all lol lol lol
