imp:HI everyone.
So I had the idea after the Drive-in braai fell through, that we do a Bring and Braai at the Rietvlei Nature reserve! :excited:
The plan is to go there on Sunday, 29 April, the gates open at 06:00, and then we can do a game drive, take lots of pics, and meet up at the braai area at say 10:30-11:00, and enjoy a lekker visit and braai.
The roads in there are REALLY in GREAT condition and the main routes to drive are ALL cemented, and I have been there before with my BMW, and was able to drive through the reserve with no issues.
The reserve is pretty close to the R21, and they have GREAT facilities, and LOTS of animals to be viewed, even the famous "Weda Fakawi" bird... you know, a small bird that cant fly, that has to jump up and down to see over the tall grass and then it makes the sound: "We Da Fak A We? We Da Fak A We?" :rollsmile:
...anyway, Below is all the details:
