Ja, Mlondlozi dam is a bit far from the picnic spot. There were impala, egrets, a fish eagle and several hippos! And around 9 am not too crowded :-)

Day 9 Around Crocodile Bridge

On the H10 were several cars watching a -O- . Far off and one might debatte if it was a stone, a log or the head of an animal sticking out of the grass, nontheless these tourists happily enjoyed their traffic jam and the "cheetah sighting" 0-

We escaped and headed back for Lower Sabie

Mlondozi is always a nice stop, especially if you have someone preparing a full "breakfast" for you O**

Sunset Dam always has some kind of movement \O
