I'd have confiscated all the booze and told you that you had to purchase it all in the park shop. :twisted:

So it was very hot indeed..39 degrees...I sometimes wonder if it wasn't better in the old days not having car thermometers, you just felt hot instead of steadily watching how hotter you were getting? ..0..

Anyway, being a shtickler for the rules myshelf, I followed MrX's inshtructionsh.. :O^ O**


leachy never took his camera out the whole trip...I'm pretty sure it's because the camera is placed on the passenger seat, which has worked fine in the past, should there be two passengers who happily sit on the back seat and keep each other company! -O-





RP: "So now we are back to normal, thanks for stopping! Jeez, it's hot, nice aircon!"

le: "Ja, we won't see anything in this midday heat!"

RP: "Agreed! Full speed ahead!"




Never underestimate Kruger.... 0*\






This thing walked over the road just after the place where Mr X said we shouldn't relocate our coolers...very close, in fact! :shock: O-/

I kept trying to get my binocs out to take a pic...it really was a mindblow...utterly against the rules of nature! (0!)

Then got the camera out... 0*\

I think we had seen impala frying in the riverbed shortly before that, but our first nearby sighting!









And next:

le: "Ja, you see now...leave the camera in the boot, and animals come! 0*\ "










Image





This is my favourite pic...only have 5-year old camera now...must get it serviced! @#$

It was one leopard...leachy says it was an overbred saggy female? Seems about right? -O-
