This week’s Foto Friday Fun includes 7 images chosen by readers picking a number out of my photo archives. Back to South Africa for this series of photos.
Diane is still working on Porsche models so chose #2 356, her favourite times two. Being she’s from South Africa originally I wonder if she’s been to Camdeboo National Park near Graaff-Reinet where even under stormy skies the Nqweba Dam showed a few birds, unfortunately not in this photo.
Sherry chose 2046 which keeps us in South Africa but this time at Golden Gate Highlands National Park where the views were simply spectacular.
Firefly chose 2695 as a random number picked by a colleague. He may have visited Mountain Zebra National Park not too far from his home and I’m sure has seen Kudus somewhere.
Erin chose 2012, “because it was the year we both retired from the workforce and began fulltiming in our motorhome.” Still at Golden Gate, I’m thinking this would be a great place to RV and spend more time hiking.
MaryBeth chose 2911, “when i met Bob.” This shows some of the mountains I met in South Africa. Swartberg Pass in fact was one of the first mountain passes I tackled.
Barb chose #2999, “just because.” Her choice takes us to yet another national park in South Africa, Addo Elephant. And this is another Kudu.
Bibi chose #2005, “the year I began and completed chemo? Not a happy period, but I’m still here, so I can’t complain.” I have total respect for anyone who has survived chemo. For you this week, a waterfall at Golden Gate Highlands.
My pick is the wash next to my Yarnell home as I remember its lush green. It doesn’t look like that right now after the fire but will return.
Thank you for playing along with Foto Friday Fun. It’s been a real trip to dig through my archives and pull the stories from my memories. For next week leave a number between 4000 and 5000 in a comment and maybe see your chosen image next week.
Which one is your favorite from this week?

If it weren’t for your trips to Africa and Foto Friday I would never have seen a Kudu. Wow what antlers. Do they shed those? Love the views in my picture. I’ll stay with the theme. Give me 4046.
They are actually horns so do not shed. Have you down for 4046.
Stunning photos and no I have not been to Camdeboo National Park so thanks for the view. I am now stuck in a rut, so next week will have to be 4 356’s wow I wish I had 4 of them:-) Enjoy your weekend, Diane
Camdeboo is a small park with a lot of punch. Sure hope you have a big garage with 4 356’s. 😉
I love the wash & my kudo. I’ll try 128 – my street number growing up. Can I go that low? If not, add a zero.
I still love the wash, just looks a little different. Have you down for 128.
Like that your African trip is ongoing through these wonderful photos…especially the Kudu!
I still have so much to post about South Africa I only need more time.
I do like that last photo of the wash. Sad to lose all that beauty, but good that you have photos to remind you. I’ll choose 4444 for next week, just because it’s a nice number.
The new look of the wash is very nice too, just different. Growth will return soon. Have you down for 4444.
A return trip to Africa is in the plans … and RVing there would be our first choice if we can work out the details 😉 I’ll go for 4444 … just because.
I’m sorry the fire has devastated so much in Yarnell … in time the scars will heal and the beauty will come back … but sadness for a while.
RV would be my preference in Africa also, but it’s not cheap and petrol cost is high. Let me know what you work out there. Have you down for 4444, seems to be a popular number this week.
Great shots as usual.
I’ll pick 5000 because that’s how many weed I have pulled out of the garden. LOL
Prayers going out to all of you and families still. MB
I’m surprised you haven’t pulled at least triple that amount of weeds. 😉 Have you down for 5000.
Thanks for the prayers and thoughts.
Hi, I missed a few weeks of photo fun. I liked this weeks photos from South Africa.
I pick nr 4795. Just a random number.
Enjoy your week.
I need to get posting more about the South African adventure or I’ll be ready to leave again. Have you down for 4795.
Thanks for the waterfall! Refreshing, to be sure. And I’d almost forgotten about kudus. Strange animal…..
4444 is my new number, because once-upon-a-time, I read 4 was my lucky number.
Have you, and two others, down for 4444.
I haven’t been to South Africa yet but I for sure would want to one day. It looks very impressive.
My favorite is 2012 cause it looks so peaceful, a great place to relax or go hiking.
I would go for number 4713
You really should visit South Africa, it’s a beautiful country. Have you down for 4713.
I just stay amazed at the beauty of Golden Gate. Such a stunning place and visited by so few compared to the big parks. As for Kudus, I saw quite a few of them this weekend at Kuzuko Lodge as well.
Numbers for this week – Nothing significant as per lately – 4397
You really need to visit Golden Gate.
Bet you had a great time at the Lodge.
Have you down for 4397.
Well, I just can’t get over seeing mountains and water in Africa! I thought it was flat and dry! kinda kidding! 8*)
My brain played a trick on me when I saw 4444 taken! I decided on 5555 but realized we are stopping at 5000, so I would love to see number 4555 instead!! 8*)
Africa is a very diverse country.
I couldn’t believe that three, and almost four,people chose the same number. 🙂 Have you down for 4555.
