Here is the whole group of girls (and boys) celebrating after finishing their hats. You really

have to look for Mom, she blended in well with the locals.

After we left the village we spent two nights in Kruger National Park viewing the animals. Then we went up and spent a few nights in a cushy lodge. Here Bonnie and George are enjoying the big tree swings.

We took a lovely boat tour and saw one of the world's few remaining Tufor Waterfalls. The surface taht this water falls over is very thick and spongy, basically full of life. From the proper angle the cavernous holes the water emerges from look like big eyes and the whole thing looks like a crying skull. Very Treasure Island!

Here is a broad view of the Blyde River Canyon, where we were boating along.

Here are Mom and I, at the Pot Holes, cliffs that have been worn away by running water into long narrow holes over the years. Below is a broader view of the rock face.

After leaving the Lodge, Bonnie and George headed for Capetown and the Wine Region, and Mom and I headed for Ingwe Game Lodge, where we fleshed out our animal spotting cards with some excellent (and sometimes scary) lion, elephant, rhino, hippo, crocodile, leopard, cheetah, and cape buffalo sightings. Posed below are the guide and tracker.
