Re: Camp and road closures due to flooding
A bit of good news with the flooding! Sometimes it’s not until you don’t see what you want to see, that you truly open your eyes.

Re: Camp and road closures due to flooding
I was just sitting here thinking about that. Maybe pop in for a drive to Letaba at about midday.

Stunning pic of Sable Dam, Sprocks.
Sad about the recurring damage though. Happy about the water supply in the long run for the animals.
