and sunset along the river (accompanied by more beers )...



So now we planned to hit the road for the rest of the time (pretty much) that I had in Moz and there were some looooong days of driving ahead. So we needed to pack up a good supply of feed, water and camp stores as well as Obano the Tracker, Jake the Cook and a Skinner. It also mean a change of vehicle to a Nissan Pickup that is a little newer and more refined than the old Tojo. This of course is akin to asking a die hard Chevy Fan to travel in a Ford... but I gritted my teeth and soldiered on .

One of the other guys in camp was also due to have days off and asked if his mother could also get a lift back to civilisation with us (about 40km or more)... now of course when the morning came there was all our gear, the three guys travelling with us, the guy going on his days off....his mother....AND two more kids.....

Yep, we were well loaded up to start off...



And back at the gate (40km away) unloading the four extra passengers and checking in with the other staff who watch the road for poachers etc entering...



Back up transport if the Nissan threw a piston and died...



And the general "Go Away" signs at the gate.....yes the blue one is a Lion Warning Sign...!!!



And a couple of hours later crossing another bit of water (after the lads has repositioned some logs and such (you will notice Jake the Cook didn't exit the truck for this as I don't think heavy lifting is in a cook's job description )...



Unpacking at the new digs...
