....... shortly before Dikbaarskolk picnic spot where I intend to restore, I see a herd of Elands walking at good speed towards the water point.
I follow them. I make myself discreet, I know they are shy. I park at a respectable distance from the water ... a long wait begins O**

A car stopped (me) = something to see = stop and restart, these are only Antelopes. 0*\ :evil:

Two to three hours later I finally got them, near the water, but the last car will be @#$ for our patience ... the Elands flee in the dunes, towards Botswana and I decide to continue my way, still a long way. A small stop to the toilet and to relax my legs, I still have the big dune to cross.
