Down Day

A pied kingfisher with a frog.
The whole group.
What did you see? and where was it?
Much of the staff of Africa Impact at Kambaku Camp.
Challenging turning around to chase game.
Candelabra euphorbia, a beautiful cactus.
A bush picnic gin stop.

 Sunday, April 30th.

We heard yesterday that there would be no loadshedding today, but we woke up this morning to no electricity and no Wi-Fi. Apparently, it was caused at the nearby power station. So, we hung out and I did some reading. I asked Daisy to take me into town so that I could attempt to get money out of an ATM again, because they don’t want credit card payments when we leave, and I don’t have a PayPal account (and to create one they want to send me a text and I have removed my SIM card to avoid Rogers roaming charges). Thankfully it worked today, and I took out 6000 Rand or about $450 Canadian. I need to pay for the steak nights, the two trips to Kruger and any incidentals. Then back to camp where I spent the rest of the day with Bruce and Koert editing, sorting, blogging reading and relaxing. I had a couple of beer in the bar with Bruce after he finished watching the formula 1 race. Then we had our gathering around the campfire welcoming our one new person, followed by a braai dinner of pork chops and potatoes. Quiet evening and off to bed early.
The only picture I took today was the kingfisher, the others are from tomorrow.
