Trip to Madikwe Game Reserve
Not quite Landy-related, but wifey and I went to the Madikwe Game Reserve for a break from the current situation.

Here are some photos, this was only at one of the lodges that we stayed at, will post some more photos as we sort through them.

Some great videos and pictures.

I've been to a reserve on the Garden Route a few times in the past few years and seeing this makes me want to go back! Rolling Eyes Alex

Naks, Thanks for bring back many memories Thumbs Up
Have not been to Madikwe since 2010 and it had already changed a bit too much
Was a guide there, based out of Tau Lodge, in the mid 90's, when there with only 3 lodges and you could spend the entire day out without seeing another vehicle.
Hopefully the translocated elles have calmed down? Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.
