This morning at sunrise I looked around, a hippo was
happy to catch the sun while almost immersed in the
river, the baboons in their cavernous tree and its thick
trunk with holes that allows them to slide down, were
still fighting- as we left I saw 2 lilac breasted rollers
And a young elephant, a cheetah walking away from
us in a cheeky goodbye that made us determined to
return next year for more adventures with the animals
in the Kruger National Park, at home when we told the
kids about seeing the giraffe being eaten by a lion
They laughed when we explained it was too gruesome
to stop and take photographs - next year we might do
better - we’ll remain immobile for longer periods as we
learn to relax into the beauty of nature & not drive too
fast looking for the Big Five when small animals are
All around us: zebras, blue wildebeest, impala & the
banded mongoose will be quite enough!
