  • We pack up the car, our camping gear and leave rainy ol' Cape Town to a chilly Karoo National Park for a short camping trip before heading to the far north of the country.

    Great to hear from you again Nicole!
    I do confess to have been a bit concerned by your absence - even to the point of checking newsites from South Africa in case something adverse had happened... I am very relieved to hear that your low profile recently has been for all the right reasons!
    Fabulous video as usual! I have made mention of the high production value of your videos before and I feel it is necessary to comment again that the quality of your videography, story-telling, and editing is continuing to improve on an already very high standard!
    Another aspect of your videos which I also feel contributes so much to the quality and enjoyment of your vlogs is the relationship you and Blair enjoy... It really projects very well and when mixed with the beautiful locations and wildlife the result is absolutely irresistable! (FWIW, I follow several other overlanding channels from individuals based in South Africa, and without fail, a large part of the attrction of those channels is the strong friendships amongst these individuals when they travel together irrespective of which far-flung part of Southern Africa that they happen to be exploring!) I guess my point is that as spectacular as the environment is that these kinds of videos are made in - and Southern Africa has a practically infinite supply of these - it is the personal relationships that gives the videos their energy, rationale, and story...
    Anyhow.... I look forward with much anticipation to the upcoming series!
    Salute!

    Glad to see you back! Loved this episode as Karoo was the very first park we ever visited in South Africa way back in 2010 and really lit the fire that led us to Kruger which keeps us coming back again and again. So seeing this brought back some nice memories. Looking forward to seeing your adventures up in Kruger.

    • @NicoleEddy1
      @NicoleEddy1  11 місяців тому

    Wonderful to see another video from you Nicole. Was wondering what had happened. Congrats on the soon to be new addition. Living overseas I get my bush fix via the videos but do get very homesick. Luckily am coming out to SA in November and have been watching all your Kruger videos for tips / hints / ideas as going to be staying in / around Kruger for a week. Looking forward to the next video of your trip

    Argh Nicole! Heating food in lined aluminum cans isn't healthy! Even storing the food in those type of cans is questionable but especially heating. So consider transfering it whenever possible. Regardless glad to see you're back vlogging!

    • @NicoleEddy1
      @NicoleEddy1  11 місяців тому +1

      Yeah, you're 100% right. In hindsight, probably not the healthiest life choice - unfortunately we were a bit tied for pots and pans but will keep this in mind for next time. Thanks!
