Kruger National Park - Day one

Kruger National Park, South Africa – 2009. We spent our last two days in South Africa visiting Kruger National Park. We stayed at Grand Kruger Lodge which is about 10km from the Crocodile Bridge Gate. The Crocodile Bridge Gate is in the South East corner of the Park and not very far from the Mozambique border. On our first visit to the park we entered through the Crocodile Bridge Gate and drove through to the Malelane Gate.
The Crocodile River crossing, not far from the Crocodile River gate into Kruger. The bridge had been closed the day before due to flooding.

How not to cross the Crocodile River
Really Stuck. There is a reason for the No Parking sign. The cable broke when they tried to winch this truck out.
