That buffalo is clever. That water looks so good

We saw lots of buffs doing this that day!

Interesting all the trunks!

The warthog thing happened to me yesterday and I did not even get a pic of the mom

Both kudu and nyala

Nice carmine bee-eater "on a wire"

Lots of babies all over the place now!

Great pics , that mud hole looks so inviting

Yes, it was hot that day so it did look very inviting!

Love nyala mom and her little one and for sure the tiny warthogs

Thanks Flutterby

Our first waterbuck! Anna was now getting very confused with all the different antelope we'd seen. But with each new animal we saw she would declare that that was her favourite so far!

We finally arrived at Lower Sabie and checked in easily. I had booked the safari tents which I thought had all recently been revamped and were all on the fence with river views. It turns out that they do not all have a view, and most of the river view tents are in ruins and not being used! The tents themselves are nice enough but the kitchen is a tiny little box that can only hold one person at a time and is like an oven. I had been so excited for my brother to see these tents, thinking that we were going to be able to sit on our verandahs and see the river, but we were all disappointed! Considering that two tents cost the same as the guest cottage we had in Satara which was really lovely, I was not impressed!!

The kitchen.

This was our view. The fence is there somewhere but the bush is so overgrown that you can't see it.

The waterbucks are really nice

Don't like Lots of nice bottles though

[Richprins]

Quite an interesting setup!

Tent with aircon!

I like this Anna girl...

My brother thought he'd over-catered on the red wine, bearing in mind that I drink white wine! There was one bottle left at the end of the trip!

I like this Anna girl...

They are called luxury tents, hence the aircon I suppose, but I wouldn't call that luxury! You'll probably like Anna even more when you see a photo of her!

RP, you like all good looking girls, without even knowing them

You have already posted a pic of Anna, Flutty

Have they already left?

[harrys]

Beautiful, Waterbuck

Just a pity about the tents at least you had aircon

I've posted a pic of her on FB, not here. They flew out the same night we got back from Kruger.

Thanks harry! We actually didn't need the aircon except on that first afternoon as the weather changed that night!

It was on facebook, that I saw it then
