Thanks Dave

You are quite correct, it is amazing how powerfull especially water can be!

Please can you put a trip report together of your Zim trip, as I want to go there?

Cheers
Peter

I will most certainly do so - got back on Saturday, wishing I was still having a cold lager on the Zambezi !!

Peter can you recall what your consumption was travelling on this trip?

Great story, bueautiful photos!

Can you tell me what the little creature, looks like a puppy or small dog by the "vulture restaurant" was?

[Herrie]

I think it is a black backed jackal.

Jules my consumption was about 4.5km/l, which is about average for my car. My car was fairly heavily loaded, with a fair amount of stuff on the roof rack as well, and there are real mountains in that country.

I would recommend budgeting for 0.5km/l more than your normal town average.

Kevin thanks, Kobus (Herrie) is correct, it is a black-backed jackal. This is our most common (or at least most commonly spotted) small predator/scavenger. It is very dog-like, and in size it is about half-way between a Jack Russel and a Bull Terrier.
