"Roll on those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer. Those days of soda and pretzels and beer..." this is the one song that, in my opinion, captures the essence of summer. Although pretzels and beer have been replaced with wasabi peanuts and martinis, Nat King Cole couldn't have said it...

Driving through Dinokeng North (after all the rain at this time of the year) to N'kosi Sana Game Lodge is such a beautiful sight that you can't stop looking at the scenery. Keeping the car on the road takes some discipline!

Noord van die Magalies, of noord van die "Magtige Apies" soos soms genoem word, is daar baie ontspannings aktiwiteite wat aangebied word en nogtans is daar so min mense wat weet daarvan.
