Mission accomplished!!!! Our brief stay at Tshukudu yielded the desired result, Shaz's cheetah fix. Otherwise the place was less than I expected given how many people have recommended it to me over the years. The staff and lodge were lovely, typical african style travellers expect. Lunch was cold and the evening meal was acceptable, certainly not exceptional.
The lodgings however were much less than I expected. Only a standard room I know but we were in a row of 4 rooms in a brick and iron roof building, it was clean and quite acceptable but might as well have been a motel on the road. For $250pppn I would expect at the very least and individual unit with a thatch roof, that's african.
The game drive was less than productive, we found lions because they were radio collared. But hey poor game drives can happen anywhere, that's game driving.
Back in Pretoria overnight with half a day to kill before we head to the airport and home. YAY, NOT!!!
