We decide on a couple of routes in the park to see what it
has to offer, we are told they have lion so my top rank spotter is told to keep
her eyes skinned.
We see a fair amount of game, compared with the Tankwa that is,
but it seems the lion has gone on holiday or joined the circus. What was nice,
is that there was always something to see and there was a very picturesque
drive and pass into the hills surrounding the park, and who gets to drive it?
You guessed it, Denise, she has all the fun.
In the afternoon we do a walk within the camps boundaries
where they have labelled all the Karoo plants if
you can ever remember their Latin names or are even interested in the botanical
names. They also had a 300 metre circuit where they displayed fossils from
millions of years ago that have been found in the dry river beds and mountains
of the Karoo, some were quite impressive.

We cannot decide whether to go home or just keep driving and
Denise is on to me about not including Cape
Town in this trip, I think she just needs to have some
retail therapy.
