Naks, Thanks for bring back many memories
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. Douglas Adams 2012 2.2 Puma |
