I am busy sorting through all my videos of our trips to Kruger since October 1993 until July 2012 and trying to pick out the best scenes from them to share with all the mites.
These should be of a better quality than the 1977 trip but the videos from 1993 until about 2008 are with a very old video camera until I got a new video camera when the quality improves slightly.
Please remember you can always improve the quality using that icon on YouTube.

Lets start 19.5 years ago - October 1993. My sprogs were 16, 15 and 9 years old. It was sadly our last trip to Kruger as a family of 5. The eldest was in matric and was itching to move on.
My video camera was one of the old ones where you still used those big video tapes.
I will try and stick to unusual and action scenes and try not to repeat too many of the same animals.
I hope that you will enjoy watching these video clips as much I enjoyed putting them together.
My favourite scenes from Kruger since 1993 - No 1.
Klipspringer walking in road, Waterbuck, three Cheetah cubs and mother Baboon and mischievious baby.

got very white tail tips - more than I have seen before.
Looks kinda cute.
Hi Mel. Thanks for this - I had not noticed the very distinctive white tips before.

VIDEO No 5
Wild dogs splashing in water at an unknown waterhole, Mongoose wrestling(????) and a lioness greets her cubs in the road right in front of us. Not very good quality as this was a 1997 video.
