    Amazing episode.
    My wife and I nearly drove the same route you did just a few days before your trip… we drove all the way from Cape Town, went in at Pafuri, stayed at Punda Maria, Shingwedzi, Satara, Skukuza, and finally Berg-En-Dal. What an amazing trip it was. Thank you for essentially documenting our own trip 😂
    Great videography, music, and narration, well done.

    Another beautiful episode, as always! Awesome sightings, sounds, landscapes. Yummy looking food as well! (except for the cars on the bridge with the cheetah, but that is nothing compared to the level of dangerously stupid behaviors going on in US Nat'l Parks! I wish there was something to be done about these situations, but I cannot imagine what.)

    @staalburger9811 Před 8 měsíci

    Will friendly criticism also get me banned? I was a Boilermaker at Malelaan Suger Plant on a contract every year for 6 years consecutively on a month-long contract. When the contract ended each year, I traveled from Malelaan To Punda Maria. It always took me about 4 days, cause I took It easy and overnighted In the camps. It was the best time of my life. I only have two complaints though. It was very expensive to spend overnight In Kruger and most people are not exactly friendly. In Kruger, everyone seems to avoid each other as much as possible. You always feel alone, unless you take some friends with you. I also worked in Nelspruit and Whiteriver, but I never made friends there either. Mpumalanga Is the most unfriendly place on earth. The animals are more friendly. Your videos are the best ever in content and quality.
