Alan  . since I am on facebook I was able to watch the vid... but i 
don't go to facebook on firefox so I had to copy and paste the link into 
my google page wehn I was already logged into Fb..  glad I did, that was 
really fun!


glad Rick asked you the question about how you got where you are, too..

Is there a vid of the elephant actually bathing in that pool?

Only wild life here is mostly the human kind.  Although after Ashley's 
departure in April it didn't take long before "Stuart LIttle" reappeared 
, spotted

scurrying across my living room floor in midday...

phosphate mine & processing plant, in Phalaborwa at short notice and 
have been here for 45 years. I suffered a second retrenchment (with 
many others) for political reasons in 2001. Zimbabwe, formerly 
Rhodesia, is a mess & South Africa is rapidly going the same way.


Strangely, I have done it in sub-20 hours in both directions with 3

the highways is 120km/h.


That same young bull elephant was right in a swimming pool at another

optimistic). I see Kruger Park to the east, and lots of other green 
bits, but also vast mines to the south. Interesting.


How did you wind up there?
