Day 166 - Into the Wild...


If I were to make a movie of my life this week I could easily give it the title 'Into the Wild...', as it really feels as if we've escaped from real life the last couple of days! We're travelling in the Kruger National Park and every day brings a gift of unrehearsed, unplanned scenes with some of the most incredible roleplayers!

In the last two days we have been up close to elephant, giraffe, wildebeest, hippo, buffalo and baboons - to name but a few! This is one of the most important wildlife conservation areas on our continent and I have been blessed to visit this amazing place since I was a little girl.

What a pleasure to listen to my parents recall the times we spent here while I was growing up! Now it's my turn to treat them and I am treasuring every moment!

Here are a few of our sightings of the last two days - we're about to start the fire for dinner, a good bottle of wine is on ice and I can't wait to spot the Southern Cross in an unpolluted clear sky!

Wish you were here! :)
