Touche, Mello!

But ja, now nice to meet people...wasn't always like that, so maturing slowly!

But still a last safe place to get away from it all!

Onward!

Back on the tar road, some beggar hornbills...we'll have beggar elephant next...










Perfect symmetry!












At De Laporte, Dewi sitting idly by the side of the road, in a flat pic...












"Oi...wonder if any plckkwachyderms will pitch up here so I can endlessly inspect their every move! "

"Who said that?"

"Oh, It's me talking to myself!"

"Hello!"

"Hello!"

"Mumblemumble...if only I had something to play with... :

"Aha! Here it is, forgot it was there below my Derby Kelly!"












Back at camp, the Camping People had launched an attack...











They had the cheek to sit and eat right there, leaving some evidence to taunt us!












Anyway, off we went to meet BC and RobertT at the golf club for a memorable breakfast, and more tea, which is also on his trip report!


Then off at Goldenboy speed down to Malelane...


First of many great scenic shots...the light really tickles me at this time of year, in case I haven't mentioned that!

Ooohhh nice fluffy clouds.

Bloody hell I look good. You obviously have caught my best side there RP.

I don't know about the light, but the cotton wool clouds are very scenic

clever boons

Dewi was sitting like a boon

They were Camping People, nana, I'm sure of it...

Campers should be banned to a locked up area, nana!

More scenery, starting with an operational Kwaggaspan:




























At Renosterpan....an elephant came gloser and gloser....
















The tea was starting to take its toll big time by now, great relaxation setting in again!

My nemesis at Malelane Gate took another swipe at me on the way out, asking why there was a beer can in the car, but Goldenboy explained with flawless logic that it was irrelevant as we were going....Bye!




GB doesn't spare the horses as far as driving goes, and the trip home was a bit of a blur...

I vaguely remember we had to take a detour through a township due to construction on the N4, and I took great pleasure in playing the music full blast and flinging litter out of the window, returning the daily favour, so to speak!


It was a very nice quick breakaway this and so lovely to see and feel the Browns again!
