Out of Africa

We have seen TV shows about game drives/safaris in Africa and wonder do they really see all those animals and are you even close enough to see them clearly? The answer is Yes & Yes. 

At least here at Kirkmans Kamp in the Sabi Sands Game Reserve. Our guides are excellent and they literally drive us right up close to the animals at the same time respecting the animals and their habitat. We have only been on three drives and have seen two mother leopards with their kill for the day, rhinos doing a courtship dance, giraffes eating breakfast, a herd of elephants crossing the river, zebras and so much more.

It may sound funny but it actually reminds us of "boonie-hopping" with my Dad - going on dirt roads in 4-wheel drive and just going and going to see what you can see. The terrain looks similar but the animals are very different from home. :-) 


It's been yet another life-changing experience on this trip and a true testament to the marvels of creation - absolutely amazing!! I could go on & on but the pictures are worth a thousand words. Enjoy!
