On the road!

Thanks to efforts from Tinus, PC and Ant I finally got to put Johannesburg behind me (sort of)

Went for a couple nights in Pilanesberg. It's decent enough there, but...I was bored ..

So this morning I eft Pilanesberg to head to Dinokeng, i got 1/2 tank of gas and shortly thereafter the vehicle started running like shit.

Limped to a Graham..

Bad gas, refilled with (hopefully) good fuel and replaced the fuel filter it's running much better now 👍

Good way to start the day...

Then ran over to Tentco to replace the roof tent cover I had purchased a few days before, it was the wrong size.
They tossed it on for me and off I went.

I arrived in Dinokeng this afternoon and am camping at Kyleu Bush Camp. It's very nice, comfortable sites with very nice absolutions.

I'm just relaxing this afternoon, letting my RTT air out and I busted out my ground tent.

Time to organize some supplies that are rolling around the cab.

Any advice on where to go for a game drive tomorrow?

I believe it's an open camp..thus hopefully = many predators go around (MPGA) your camp site tonight. You will have to train your eyes as to come accustomed to spotting well camouflaged animals in the different types of terrains you will encounter. So just go enjoy a nice drive - :layrubber:

Arlington Breweries is also rather close to your whereabouts I believe.

Are you heading east to the Kruger National park?
