Pit stop in Sukuza and we proceeded on to the Sabie river high way....

The idea was to turn right...but there was a herd of ellies to the left.
So turned left then realised that this was a huge breeding herd....

SO's pics of a tiny one...

Soon we were not only surronded by ellies but tourists as well....

Fortunately the ellies were very relaxed and crossed the round around and through all the vehicles
