Almost Halfway

For our last day at Mlilwane we had to move into a two person Rondavel - still very comfortable and the equivalent of the best Kruger can offer.

As a result we didn't start our hile along the Hippo trail until after 9.00. Great self-guided walking trail which takes 2-3 hours with a variety of habitats. Still adding to our collection of new bird species – amazed at the variety and colours of some of the birds here – even the grasshoppers are Elegant! 

Probably ready to move on again – one more night in Swaziland – at a lodge near Mbabane – then on to Johannesburg and a night or two with Sue.

If any of you are thinking about a holiday trip here, I would definitely include Swaziland and Mlilwane in particular. Paul's company runs small group tours which include Kruger, Mozambique and Swaziland.

Incredible thunder storm this evening which passed within 5 miles or so – great view of the lightning from our doorway – bit of rain as well but it didn't amount to anything.
