After two weeks in South Africa with Scuba Diving and Game Driving we’re back home. Currently we’re trying to  acclimatize: from 38°C in Kwa-Zulu Natal to -5°C in Bremen. Here is what our garden looked like when we arrived.

There are many warm thought and impressions from the past two weeks. I did two galleries from our Game Viewing:

  1. Ndumo: https://www.tkfg.de/portfolio/ndumo-nature-reserve-kwazulu-natal-south-africa/
  2. Pongola:  https://www.tkfg.de/portfolio/pongola-game-reserve-kwazulu-natal-south-africa/

I still have a lot of Gopro stuff to review from our scuba diving, coming soon….
