Yes, I have! Better than expected :yes:

The only regret is that nobody came and visited me :-(

Finally caught up, Alf,

what an amazing leopard sighting, Mrs. Alf, discovered - Very impressive :-0 \O

Also love the shots of Sirheni - Looks like a more than wonderful place O/\

Mooiplaas and Mopani as well as Shingwedzi are also great areas which we do love :ty:

Thank you everyone that rides along with us

The next day we packed up and traveled south again. We went past the leopard sighting of the previous day but no leopard this time. The tar road from Babalala picnic area down to Mopani was like the N1 highway. Vehicles speeding, tailgating and overloaded vehicles.

No number plate on the back of this vehicle 0*\

Dead animals in the road

Image

We finally arrived at Mopani for our last 4 days in the park. It's actually scary how quickly 8 days went past.

At reception the trophy from Africa Wild stands proud

Image

We were booked into our requested unit no 13 O/\

This time so glad we were at the bottom because the noise from the units above were crazy.

We then decided it's time to have dinner at the restaurant for a change.

Image

When we arrived it was rather quiet but soon everyone arrived and the restaurant was packed.

The next day we drive down to Letaba.................


Next trip to the bush??

Let me think......................

How can a vehicle without a number plate be allowed into the park? :-?

Maybe it is enough to have one in front lol Or maybe it is going from one camp to another, without going in nor out O**

I would like to know how the food and service were.

All that traffic must be during the school holidays. When I was there it was very calm, but it was raining. Babalala looked like a cemetery lol

We had good service and good food \O

I feel SP have a huge problem with speeding especially during peak periods. I would double up the traffic officers during these peak periods.

Lots of speeding vehicles up north O/

Maybe it was loose and fell off after entering -O-
