Happy Jackal

Good morning all,

Trust you are having a fabulous Saturday morning

Here are some of the pictures of some before and after of the new Zebra suite that Tim was building and renovating.

This was just a large room with the en suite. An empty shell, with loads of little particions etc. Tim stripped the floor, ceilings, walls and you name it to bare naked shell. Did you spot those beautiful old copper pipes that now shines like brand new. Tims little secret!

He then divided this suite to make two separate storerooms for me on the outer side with own entrances, so it does not form part of this room. Now I also have some storage rooms.

Transformation of note! Incredibly picture pretty!
From the ugly duckling to the swan.

Thank you, Tim. It is beautiful. You are indeed very meticulous and only someone with great appreciation of the sweat, time, effort and knowledge that went in here will know.

Another ready to sleep in comfort and beauty with its own little kitchenette, lounge and bathroom.

Oh by the way! He is now also busy renovating Kudu cottage! Another project!

Good evening

I have been watching the feedback and comments and shares on our page.

At first I thought it is poor, but to my surprise, we are receiving many referrals from guests on our facebook who was with us previous years.

A BIG thank you for this!
You are appreciated helping us grow our business!

Have a wonderful blessed evening!

Sitting in my office, a guests walks in, sees the traporrel and ask if he may play.
What wonderful time spend listening to the sounds.

I was amazed, as not everyone knows how to play this organ.

Thank you Christiaan for filling Happy Jackal with beautiful sound!

Good morning

A very quiet time it is suppose to be during our winter time, but i must be honest, we have had a lot of referrals and walk in guests, which we very blessed for.

Tim is busy renovating and doing building alterations on our new Zebra studio, which must be done by latest 5 July, so we can place our guests in it. Cannot wait to see the outcome. We have always believed that a driver of a group or a tour guide must also have a beautiful place to sleep in, and this is exactly what it is going to be.

We have the racing team staying with us for this week and today is their big racing day. Of course, as always, we have been invited, but today is impossible, as I am expecting almost a full house of guests today.

Tomorrow we will have 17 people in the diningroom for breakfast and 4 for lunch. This is going to be the first time Happy Jackal will have guests for a warm 3 course Sunday LUNCH! Going to be amazing!

On this high note, we will keep you update on all our new happenings, etc and wish you all a lovely warm and safe weekend.
