We today could witness the anti poaching unit searching for suspect individuals by helicopter ( see photo) and on foot.

Sabie River Golf Club

Now that the World Cup is over, we again find the time for the weekly game of golf.
To play a round at Sabie River Golf Club is not just playing "golf ". The course layout is very interesting with lots of water in play (so make sure you have enough balls).
Besides a good or not so good game of golf, it is worth a visit in any case. The Sabie River flows through the development and also non-golfers are welcome for coffee and cake on the terrace and walk around to observe hippos, crocodiles and birds.
Attached are two photos we have taken yesterday afternoon.
The Golf Course is located directly across the street from Abangane Guest Lodge, on the R536 , in Hazyview.

Back to normal

After 4 weeks of World Cup time, everything at Abangane Guest Lodge in Hazyview is "back to normal".
We hosted some of the most interesting soccer fans from Chile to Japan, Germany, France, UK, the USA and numerous other countries.
It proofed to be as exciting as we expected it to be. Congratulations to the Spanish team on their success. A thriller of a game! We unfortunately could not see the winning goal live as our power supply company Eskom decided to have a problem the moment the second half of extra time started. What a disappointment!!
Now our focus is back on the "game" (as in wildlife).

We thank all our guests for staying with us and wish them everything of the best!!

Germany-Argentina. Hurayyyyyyyy!!!!!

A part of the remaining group of over 50 men (and women) of the Fan club “Sektion Mitteldeutschland” enjoyed the glorious win over Argentina at Abangane Guest Lodge.
We cannot wait for the German “Elf” to repeat this in the game against Spain.
