A sms from Mel.

"Our first full dayin Kruger and it was awesome. Implala, zebra, warthog, kudu, nyala, bush pig, cameleons, leopart tortoise, bateleur, a breeding herd of ellies real close! A bachelor pack of Giraffe, fish eagles, crocs and hippos and llots of lovely birds. And on the last drive we saw 2 Sharpe's Grysbok. We feel so lucky"

Today they travel to Olifants. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
