Fantastic spot at Shimuwini $O/\$

I have never stayed there

Booked it twice but cancelled each time as I believe game can be missing

seems that this "spur of the moment" outing is turning into an extended vacation

filled with stunning views and accommodation.

Interesting, Alpheus! $\O$

Larney units there, did the heavy pay?

Shimuwini is still one camp I have to stay one day - The view is breathtaking and so was the one from the Bungalow with view at Mopani - I guess you decided right with the change of accommodation, Alf $O\/$ $O\/$ $O\/$

It's always great to be in Kruger and while there's accommodation available then why not stay longer

We have stayed at both these camps a few times and both have great views. Shimuwini just more quiet.

The next morning we went in search of the lions that roared across the river and we took the low maintenance road all the way to the river. No animals on this entire road but it was stunning.

On our way back we met up with RP........ but he wasn't happy to see "boerseun" and had a small accident.

Went back to camp but had to stop at the baobab tree. Sure the elephants love eating the poor tree

That evening I saw this weird looking insect in the bathroom. (ID please)

We packed up the next morning to go back to Mopani

On our way there we saw this horn next to the road. After looking around we found these Hyenas

Came across this little brave elllie

Next episode we experienced the "say goodbye my old friend". Some emotional elephant meeting.

Only saw it on television before but never thought we will have the privilege to see it ourselves.
