| WED 16 JUNE
(Youth day - 13th anniversary of the June '76 Soweto uprising)
Early
rise and walk along the Sabie River in front of the Skukuza camp (pic. 1)
- then a slow, back-roads drive south through the park to Berg-en-dal
camp. Sightings included : giraffe (at the carcass of the one we saw
yesterday - a mate?); a massive herd of elephant, mothers and babies (pic.
2); zebra; kudu (pic 3); wildebeest; African Fish Eagle; Snake Eagle.
Sightings did NOT include a picnic site which was supposed to occur en
route - hence arrived at Berg-en-dal utterly starving at 13h30! (Brunch
was going to be a happy event on the road!)
