Eastward toward Kruger Park




After two nights at the charming Zebra Chalet, we left Pretoria and drove about 4 hours east to Malelane, a town across the Crocodile River from Kruger National Park.  We shared the road with a bunch of motorcyclists involved in some sort of a race.  Tonight we're staying on the river immediately across from Kruger Park in a very pretty guest house.  Looking down-river late this afternoon I counted (through the binoculars) about 12 elephants, 2 rhinos, and a whole lot of steenbok  (didn't see any crocodiles, but we were told they're out there and really big).  Tomorrow we pick up some supplies and then head into the park for nine nights  The first rest camp supposedly has some sort of WiFi in the bar, but the other two do not, so will not be blogging much for awhile.
