South Africa 20 Way to Kruger Park

Well we continue slowly, hill after hill. The last one is the longer, about 8 km, under a terrible heat. I get slowly at the top. Near the end I have to walk, from a shadow to the next. It is too hot. At the top I stop and seat in the shadow, waiting for Martine. After a while, a van appears and stops at my level. Martine is in. A woman picks her up, she didnt her to continue pushing the bicycle in that heat. So I put too my bicycle in the van and we fo downhill to Sabie. The woman invites us to stay in his home nearby. Here we meet a neighbour and friend of us. He propose us to bring us back to Nelspruit airport, where we could rent a car. As Martine would like to see animals, I agree too, as by that way we could visit Kruger park. It is too late to get a reservation for a car, so the lady agrees we stay at his home one day more. We just rest and goes shopping in Sabie, which is half a tourist city, half a village. Martine spend all afternoon using internet on her phone to prepar Kruger park visit, and I read aebout cycling the South Mozambique to choose the following of the travel.
On Sunday morning Roy brings us to the airport where we get a car. And we go to Kruger park where we will stay 2 days. We see a lot of animals, and it is a bit funny to look for them in the small forest. We see also hyenas, as we get to the campsite late. but as we awake late we dont see lions. But it is rather expensive. 250$ for 4 days renting a car with 970 km, 100$ petrol, 90$ fee to stay in the park 2 days, 18$ for camping one night, 40$ for restaurant by the evening and cantine at midday. Then we add 60$ for the transport to the airport, 16$ for the campsite out of Kruger, and 80$ for the room in Pieterburg where we let the car and take one day rest, as Martine drives all the 3 days.
After Kruger park, we get of by Arpen gate and all around are private game parks. We camp in a campsite.
