WAKE UP CALL - ON THE MOVE AGAIN

OMG Woken at six by enormous baboons sitting on our deck upstairs and outside the kitchen-they were quite intimidating!They look for an open window and get in and wreck the lodges so glad we woke up but exciting all the same.
. Sorry Boys and Max and Connie we didn't get a photo - they made us jump and had gone by the time I got the camera. You imagine a crowd of big baboons sitting outside your back door !!

After an hour in the Bee eater hide just watching the amazing kingfishers and the hippos, we packed up and left Majuli Lodge in Marloth Park south Kruger

SO DRIFTING again slowly thro The Kruger - Four drifters 18 teddies a bit of driftwood and a pebble are on the move again


Many roads closed and rivers full but at least no rain And warm. Sue and I are really enjoying the birds so we were as much animal watching as bird

Stopping at Skukuza Camp on the way up there was a great restaurant an old tin shed. Much to our surprise it was an old station even old suit cases, the most beautiful old steam train and Pullman carriages with a bar and the platform had more tables and chairs - really different. Then the last leg of our journey had to not DRIFT as we had to be at Satara Lodge before dusk

Two cute rondavels a few gnts nice meal - great day. It's getting hot.
