Day 1 Part 11!

At last! Our destination! Virgin Teritory for all of us...






















And not a bad view from the hut upon reception there!





















(We had to sit outside as they were still cleaning, even though it was after 2 pm...the whole bitch can be read here: viewtopic.php?f=76&t=596&start=80 )


DW: "Who are a virgin!? "

RP: "Glad to see you are awake again! "




While on the deck I noticed this weaver beginning to build its nest, and immediately decided to photographically follow it's daily progress!



















Needless to say I forgot about it...short-term memory not good...but I swear it's in the pic somewhere!





There was a massive bunfight about who should get the "master bedroom", with double bed and en-suite BATH!!!!...


The little tit frewells rushed to put his kit there, presumably still inebriated:




Fw: "I got the spot first!"

RP: "My trip, my spot... "

Fw: "Absolutely, O great Leader! "


It didn't quite go like that, but anyway....I got my spot after threatening financial and legal action!



So plenty of time for an afternoon drive!


The youngsters went to sleep again, for some reason...must have been the heat...so Mambas, frewells and myself departed in "O Fortuna" for a Mphongolo Loop drive!

I think I may have been at the wheel! (Long-term memory shot... )





This back at the tar road:

















Ma: " Hijack! "

Fw: " Tender elapsed! "

RP: "No, just a desperate attempt to get diesel to leachy...I know how angry he can get....Oh do I know!.... "





So quickly down to the bottom entrance of the loop, and leisurely upward!

(Sounds a bit like a colonoscopy, but anyway... )





Some more stunning nyala pics! :




































If these don't win me an award this time I shall resign from the forums....no jokes!
