The dam wall, isolation, and open space make this a uniquely special place! <dop>

We felt we should celebrate, so put away our tea and shared a can of beer I had brought along for just this sort of occasion! O/\ X#X ^Q^

(I think we deserved it... :yes: )


5 minutes later... O-/

We could not get off the dam wall.

It was a standoff, literally at high noon! O:V

Nobody budged. 0()

Dw: "Play vat kaalboy music by Climt Eashtwood!"

Bl: "Thish dam is not big enough for the both of ush!"

RP: "Chaaaaaarge!!!!"

Frew: "I'm Hungry!"




After having bashed the invaders into the dam with the trusty Samoosa, we left the scene.

These christmas tree birds were a far cry from the snow-covered alpine forests! :shock:

Always stunning to find eland in the park, Richprins \O \O \O

Normally one can wait for the other car to leave the dam and drive on same then - I guess that would makes more sense :-?

You just need to say that you saw the eland and that you forgot to mention it,
and you'll be fine.


Awww, I saw that eland but I never thought that it would be so important to you
that I should mentioned it. Please, may I keep commenting?

See, Flutts. There you go.
