Off to see the Sites.

For those wondering whereabouts we are, we are very close to the Kruger Game Park.

Today we headed out to see some of the local sites. As we left the resort we met a herd of zebra at the side of the road.

Before we left Robert was speaking to one of the neighbours about where we were heading, and he was given a short cut to save going all around the mountains. The road was in desperate need of maintenance, but we survived despite the cows refusing to move off one of the bridges. We also managed to see a troop of baboons off in the distance, but they were gone before I could get the camera out! Below are some views of the shortcut.

A quick plug for a volunteer organisation that Molly has started. I guess the name says it all?

Once back onto the paved road we headed for Bourke’s Luck Potholes, these potholes were a little different to the ones we had spent the last 30 minutes avoiding. They have been created over time by whirlpools in the water eating away at the rock. Again a few photos

Even found a Monkey

Next stop was the three Rondavals, a rock formation name for their resemblance to the round native thatched huts.

View Down the Gorge

Small Ant Hill

Lyn and Robert to add Scale Guess What Lyn Found?

Last stop was the Berlin Falls

On the way home we saw these remarkable acts of balance in one of the towns

Many thanks to Robert for driving and Molly for catering!!
