Very much enjoyed your video. Thank you for the tour of the Kruger National Park. Tell me, are those big concrete reservoirs out there to help bring water to the animals? I don't want to sound like a dumbbell but I would like to know. I've never been to Africa. It was always a dream but somehow life always gets in the way.

Great video Richard. It must have been hot camping in your tent? We always caravaned in winter. Loved the music. Not loud thumping like some idiots and also when you spoke none at all, which is how it should be. Man but you guys saw lions. Yes Satara is definitely the camp for lions, especially S100. We haven't been since 2018 after many years of going there. Retired now. Hope you youngsters have many more years of going there.
@RichardvanHaght
@RichardvanHaght Ай бұрын
Hi Neil thank you for the kind comment! Yes it was hot camping with the dome tent but evening temperatures were cool and pleasant, so we tried to avoid the campsite as much as possible during the day. Especially during the summer months! We were very lucky with the lions I’ve been to Satara before where I’ve had only distant visuals… You are right the S100 is definitely the place for lions in that area! They seem to love the N’wanetsi River that meanders next to the road! I hope you get back to Satara soon, it’s definitely one of the most special places in the Kruger. There are many special memories from visits to the camp over the years. Again thank you for the comment Neil, I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Nice to meet you!

@@RichardvanHaght I spent a few days at the end of December / early January with a female a few km south of Ngotso Dam that had a kill, that I really thought was her, but I compared her spots with Amira and sadly it wasn't.
