Waiting for our accomodation

as we were too early and the family lodge was not ready yet.

It was awfully hot and the waiting drained us. Lunch was to be at 1pm, then check in at 2pm and tea time at 4pm.

The first game drive was at 5pm with dinner at 8pm.

It was our third time here, so we knew the ritual. What we did not know was that it had been taken over by another game reserve which we did not like at all.

It does look inviting. Hope it wasn't too disappointing.

[Cordiander]

A very nice place to wait.

[Susan Wakely]

A great waiting area.

[Issi Bannerman]

It looks roasty toasty! I hope that wee glass of white helped with the waiting and the disappointment about the change of management.

[Brian]

Lovely image.

[Wylie]

Sorry your inconvenience!
Enjoy your wine!

Lovely place to sit down in the shade and have some rest before your adventure begins.

[Beryl Lloyd]

What a shame things were not as they used to be!

Nice you were able to have some shade while you waited. It looks like a lovely place. Although I can only imagine how hot it was.

[Mags]

Lovely shaded space. Looks very warm.

[Lou Ann]

I hate it when a company changes hands. All the promises made by the new owners never come to pass.

[KWind]

I bet it's hot there! I don't like the heat!

[mittens (Marilyn)]

What a wonderful looking place. I'm sorry it was so uncomfortable for you to have to wait. No fun.

[Bobbi C]

Oh no, I hope that the visit went well! The resting spot is lovely albeit the heat.

[Peter Dulis]

nice place to park oneself :)

[Jacqueline]

Super cool space to wait!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

It does look hot- even in the shade! I'm sorry the trip was in some ways disappointing. Hopefully the time spent together as a family lessened the blow.

Toasty weather indeed.

Looks like you're going in style but too many time checks. Great looking plants also.

Hopefully you enjoyed yourselves in the end

People are the priceless ingredient…
