In 2015 I obtained a scholar for doing postdoctoral study in North West University. The Mafeking city looks like the old farm and is the capital of the NW province . The is different than in my country, winter starts in June to August and it is cool and dry. Summer from mid-october to mid-February is charcterized by hot and raining. We deside to visit ammazing Sun City. The city is far 3hr by car from Mamabato (my place). I spent fanatics time there. We went to national park with safety car and saw wildlife. The park has diverse landscapes , fauna and flora. It contains lots of animals arround the water holes. There is a good chance to take beautiful photos and to enjoy nature and the animals such as elephants, hippos, giraffes, rhinos, ginu, impala and more. But we didn't observe the lions. Then we spent very nice duration in feeding time of crocodiles in their village. Then we relaxed in large boat arround lake. Finally, we ate our dinner in lovely Palace hotel. This hotel has unique style and attractiion. We had picked fantastic pictures
