We left on an early July 3rd morning

We come to the home of Derrick and Cherry Pringle who live about 30 miles from the Zaire border

Their swimming pool. It's winter, so it's not in use

from an anthill

Beautiful bougainvillea on their property

Ersatz crocodile whom they call "Ngwenya"

Derrick's business is installing electric and security fencing. His entire 30 acres is surrounded by electric fence

A little like Crocodile Dundee?
