Hell, you can moan about the heat?

At least I didn't spend my afternoon on the bed with a fan and aircon

It obviously depends which areas get rain first. I think the Satara area was the last to get proper rain

We spend some time at the restaurant to cool down
The river not flowing much
The tree to the left of the restaurant. I always admire this tree and wonder what stories he can tell
Me and Mrs. Alf taking a picture
We went back to our cottage. We stayed in cottage 105. Our view
I just love this area of camp. Always so quiet
Our braai. They have added paving around this area now.
Just before we started the fire we walked through the camp
Mrs. Alf and my heavy taking a picture
The next day we went to Olifants camp for breakfast.......

Very nice, Alpheus!
Give the wife a soppy kiss for me!
She looks very like her brother, who looks quite big, so maybe I had better shut up?
Nice to see a bit of lawn there...in the old days it was all lawn...

We have seen the river like this a few times. Never seen it full from side to side

Every time we visit Kruger we have to visit Letaba. Yeah the camp sites are lovely and those trees make great shade.
