Camping On The Orange River


















This Border Collie belongs to the owner of the campsite. He spends a large amount of time frolicking in the river, chasing after waterbirds and waiting for humans to come play with him.




A couple sets off on a three-day journey down the river, accompanied by a guide.

    What a great trip to do and fantastic photos. Love the one with the reflections of the rocks in the water and the dog looks like it is a very happy pooch. Have a great Christmas. Diane

    Looks so inviting. Any crocs or hippos? Or can I join the dog and splash around? Wishing you a blessed Christmas.

    Hi Graham;) what stunning photos of the best river in Africa! Your post takes me back to 1993 when my husband, I and our Scottish terrier spent a month at De Hoop. No campsites, no parks, no nothing! Where was this campsite? Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. Thanks for sharing your beautiful land with us via blog. Greetings, Jo
