After
collecting our new guests in Nelspruit we set off towards the park. Entering
through the Phabeni gate, we had more than enough time for a slow drive towards
Pretoriuskop.
Our highlight
for the afternoon, had to be the herd of elephant that crossed the road in
front of us. They moved relatively quickly, as they headed to water. After a
short drink it was on their way to search for either more food or shade.
Many different
animals were spotted throughout the drive which kept it interesting for my
guests.

We were the
first car out of camp and headed along towards Skukuza for breakfast.
Crazy day had
by us with so much happening.
We spotted
many beautiful animals and by 14:00 we were on our way back to camp.
Highlights had
to be the wild dog been chased by a hippo at a man made water hole. Further to
this we spotted Lions, Leopards and cheetah of the cats with many other
fantastic sightings of elephants and rhinos in mud baths and water holes.
With so much
activity, we picked up two more guests and had a lovely afternoon spending some
quality time at herds of Impala, dazzles of zebra and a few individual
elephants to round off the day.

Once again we
set off first, so that we could find some quality animal sightings before the
heat of the day. This was achieved, and by the afternoon we had spotted so many
fantastic sightings of herds of elephant, buffalo. Fantastic rhino sightings
and bumping into 3 lioness walking parallel with the road. The only Leopard we
could find lay at the base of a tree, with apparently it's Impala meal up in
the top branches. Very difficult to see as the distance wasn't on our side and
we could only view with a good set of binoc's. Having said that we were still
happy as very often leopards can be missed.
Back to camp
for a rest as some of my guests are on a night drive, to spot some of the
nocturnal animals Kruger has to offer.
So far it's
been a great safari and all the guests have enjoyed spotting these lovely
creatures with me.
Tomorrow, just a
short drive before it's goodbye to all as they set off back to JHB.
