Weekly Winners 11 May - 17 May

http://sarcasticmom.com/?page_id=137


I've decided to put the Weekly Winners on this site now, instead of my ramblings blog. That'll make sure I don't repeat photos ;) so it'll be a bit more challenging for me every week.

I went away on a Management offsite to Mongena Lodge, north of Pretoria, and all the photos are from there. It's a pity we didn't get to go on a game drive, else there'd be more to show you.

There was a family of Nyala that were wandering around the conference facilities on Friday.
If someone else hadn't have come up behind Werner, I reckon this Nyala would have eaten the lettuce being offered. The building behind them is a chapel... what a gorgeous place to get married at!

The lodge is close to a military air base (we know this because my manager flew there in his plane), so it was quite cool to see this...
