Spotted online. This:
This is really good news: it’s been a hot, sunny day, and I desperately need a dip. I had legitimate concerns about the safety of swimming here, given the local wildlife, but if they don’t swim here, well then I surely (and safely) can. Fantastic. What a result.
Punctuation is important, hey?
But while we joke, as mentioned here, these things can be a real danger. Not where I came from, and (mostly) not where I live right now, but definitely in this country.
I took this while I was up in Hoedspruit earlier in the year. And while I feel that this one (next to the water feature outside the packhouse office), was perhaps a little tongue in cheek, there were plenty of real life places with these real life dangers from which I chose to stay away.
And no. Just for outright clarity, that first paragraph below the top image was merely for artistic impression and comedic value. It’s finally sunny here, which is great, but it’s also absolutely bloody freezing.
It’s no wonder the wildlife all heads up north.
