Here are some pics of the new barrel planters I have been talking about, taken yesterday. Looking good in the early winter sunshine. It's amazing how green everything still is. Bruno is supervising, of course.

A bright daytime moon and a colourful evening after sunset. Remember: we still have two Rissington benches to dedicate and position. You choose the size - R3120 for 2-seater, R3420 for a 3-seater or R3820 for a 4-seater. Prices are at cost and include transport. The dedication and the location are up to you.

Another lovely afternoon, cycling today through and alongside the Sabi River. And even under it, at Lone Creek Falls. Winter is cycling season here in the Lowveld, so bring your own or use one of our 8 bicycles and take a ride out with Thabiso, JJ, Lungi and me. Or whoever is around. This was a great gentle 90-minute route covering about 22km of single track and Jeep track through the forests. There are longer and more challenging routes available in Sabie, as well as shorter rides through our neighbours' macadamia plantations and a fun gravel road trip along the outside of the Kruger fence from Phabeni Gate to Numbi Gate and back. Come on down to Hazyview in the winter. The days are sunny and warm. And remember our four nights for the price of two, any time in May or June...

The new May Winter Rissington Rag is now available on the www.rissington.co.za Blog page (link in bio). It tells you to come to the Lowveld, as do these undoctored cellphone Kruger pictures! I took the leopard pic outside Biyamiti yesterday evening at sunset. The rest were taken today. Please read the Rag this weekend and let's fill up the rooms at Rissington this winter! See you soon.
