Hello!
We woke up so early this morning... because last night we saw some Zebra just down the drive from our lodge so we thought we would get up early to see them in the daylight! When we woke up, we went out onto the balcony to take a look and they were there, so we jumped in the car and drove down the road! Amazing, they were about 20 feet in front of us! We also saw some baboon, monkeys, klipspringer & kudu!! After our little drive, we had breakfast and then went up to the clubhouse for a pedicure! It was nice to be able to relax for 90 minutes ;)
When we arrived at the lodge we had about 45 minutes to get settled in and ready for our first safari! We were going on what they call a night drive and bush braai, so we started off on our drive, which was about 3 hours! We saw a lot of elephants, zebras, buffalo, impala, warthog and a few giraffe! After our drive they stopped in the middle of the bush so we could have dinner! We even had our own park ranger who was walking around with a gun and flashlight, pretty awesome! It was absolutely beautiful out... there were stars as far as you could see! We had some amazing food as well- garlic bread, chicken, pop, curry bananas, pork and boerewors! While we were out there we had fun taking some long exposure photos!

It was a wonderful night out in the bush |
After this very long day, we got back to the lodge and had a nice relaxing midnight snack on the balcony outside our room while we listened to the animals in the bush! We also got to skype with a bunch of the family, then off to bed we went!!
