Mlilkwane Wildlife Santcuary (Swaziland) :

S 26°29.708' E 031°11.742'
Swaziland is just around the corner, but the pace slows richt down once you,re rolling through the hills on the plateau where intensive farming is practiced; farming on a scale have seen little of in Africa. The backpacker was superbly set in the Mlilkwane Wildlife Santcuary where warthogs clip the grass and an ostrich comes for a few gulps of water from the swimming pool in the morning. There are hippos in a dam a few kilometre's walk away, but the main attraction is the natural amphitheatre and the quiet setting.
PS In the town of Manzini a plaque on the wall where a few ATM machines are installed, comemorates their inauguration two years ago by the Minister of Finance!
