Many thanks to Steve and family (and neighbors) and the staff at the farm for a truly amazing weekend, your hospitality is unsurpassed

Also many thanks to the Tailwinders for allowing this Rhino x Chainganger to come with, I'm sorry I broke the kettle I'll get a new one promise

I couldn't believe how much wildlife is literally on our doorsteps, saw koedoes, rooibokke, blesbokke, other buck I have no clue what they were, kameelperde, zebras, plenty LIONS!!!, hyenas, secretary birds, vlakvarke just to name a few

Like Bundy says I also can't wait for the next one
