My father and his other half came for their "yearly" visit this weekend.
I was extremely excited as I have not seen them since January. And in my mind that's like 2 years!
We booked a house in the Mabalingwe Nature Reserve close to Bela-Bela, Limpopo. Perfect for a group of friends or a family.
Saturday arrived and after a lot of running around I managed to make Cedric and I late so we were not able to pick them up at the airport, that made me a very unhappy lady. Thank goodness my sister was there and they picked them up.
We had so much fun and the house was beautiful. We did our own game drives but unfortunately did not see much. :(

Not even 1 of the Big5 animals came to visit us or was nice enough to make their presence known while on our drives.

Pretty scenery on the game drive |

I loved spending time with the people that I love but hated that I managed to catch the flu on Sunday night.
I am feeling much better already and was so grateful for the Public Holiday we had yesterday.
We said our goodbye's and now we are counting down the days till the next visit!
