You never know what to expect on a game drive, which we did at 5:30AM and 4:30PM every day for about three hours.
-
- A blue headed lizard shows off his colors in hopes of attracting a mate.
-
- The male kudu, a species of antelope with the most gorgeous corkscrew horns.
-
- The lilac breasted roller is always a showstopper.
-
- Mike studying African geography.
-
- A rare white lion, with a little pink tint from a recent fresh meal.
-
- So I passed Mike the “broccoli” at our dimly lit restaurant. He shook it onto his plate. That’s when we figured out it was a cactus, and Mike had a plate full of dirt!
-
- We watched our step to avoid crushing these tiny shark tooth succulents.
-
- Tintswalo Safari Lodge was our favorite on this trip. Tasty food, beautifully presented.
-
- Never trust a pretty face. This boomslang snake is so venomous that one bite will make you bleed from all orifices until you die.
-
- This cookout brunch was much appreciated after our 5:30AM game drive.
-
- Acacia thorns are plentiful and wicked to tires.
-
- An African safari tradition is “sundowners” or cocktails in the bush at sunset.
