:O^ :O^ :O^ :O^ :O^

now...... i do believe that these photos of the dimwits belong in the "gallery of shame"

not because of their shameful appearance.......

but because that lookout is not a spot where

"you may alight from your vehicle"

and sanparks will not be held responsible....................

Yes you may alight! 0-

Why do you think there are poles there...hence the "demarcated area"... ^0^

Enjoy your Month away! X#X



The camera is far away so as to not reveal much detail, Flutts! =O:

Should I dare to ask what Mambas was pointing with at the sparse vegetation?
Judging from the pic, I think not... :-?

Who's that handsome guy with the AW shirt? O0

Day 1 Part 6:



So we eventually reached Mopane Camp! \O

It was hot and dry...and hot, if I forgot to mention that... 0*\



Image



As usual, the main guest area was under construction...this has been the case every year for half a decade at this time of year, I kid you not! 0:





Image






There was no-one with a "Helmat" in sight, BTW! -O-



Anyhoo, we stumbled along en-masse, and saw this sign! Looked very interesting, so we glanced around and saw some HR's winking at us to come and enjoy the show!




Image




So we stumbled over there, and I noticed a marked change of attitude once my shirt was recognised....maybe it was all in my mind... O**



HR1: "Welcome, and come and see the show..."

RP: "Okay! But can we go to the bar first, as it is still a while 'til the next presentation?"

HR2: "Err...ok....whatever..."



I'm not much in favour of these displays of tame animals in a National Park...but that's just me!





Anyway: Construction scene!:





Image





Dwarf: "We aren't going to have the compulsory Gin and Tonics like the last ten years, are we?"

RP: "Yes. It's a tradition!"

Frewells (AKA Lamb to Slaughter No. 1) : Oooh! Sounds excellent!"

Mambas (AKA Lamb to Slaughter No. 2) : "Sounds great!"

Goldenboy: " 0*\ "

Maybe gearing up for a huge conference regarding re:-

New hotel in the area. All interested parties involved will
be covered by decent thatch!!!!.

There is a stigma attached to Mopani camp,- supposed to
be known as "where all the corporates hang out".

It carries all the features for such liking. Did it happen???


Heh,.. H.e

The Camp has/had great conference facilities, and .gov has used them! No problem at all!

It is a luxury camp...no campsites...so it keeps you and Blutuna and the rest out! \O
