Pilanesburg

 WE HAVE BEEN SO BUSY IN THE AREA OFFICE THAT WE DECIDED TO TAKE THE LEE'S AND VISIT PILANESBURG GAME PARK FOR A FEW DAYS. IT WAS SUCH AN AMAZING TRIP. WE DID A SELF DRIVE, WHICH MEANS WE DROVE OUR OWN CAR AROUND THE PRESERVE. WE WENT DURING THE WEEK SO IT WASN'T VERY CROWDED. THE FIRST 10 MINUTES INTO THE PARK WE SAW 4 HIPPOS BASKING IN THE SUN,A FAMILY OF ELEPHANTS ACROSS THE WATERING HOLE, AND  AN ELEPHANT PLAYING IN THE MUD. WHEN WE LEFT THE WATERING HOLE A HERD OF WILDEBEAST RAN RIGHT IN FRONT OF OUR CAR.

THEN WE CAME ACROSS THIS LITTLE GUY SITTING RIGHT NEXT TO THE ROAD.

WE CAME ACROSS THIS GIRAFFE RIGHT NEXT TO THE ROAD AS WELL. THEN WE DISCOVERED AT LEAST 6 MORE GIRAFFE IN THE TREES NEARBY.

WE SPENT TWO DAYS IN PILANESBURG AND I HATED TO SEE EACH DAY END.
WE COUNTED AT LEAST 2O DIFFERENT SPECIES OF ANIMALS WE SAW IN THOSE 2 DAYS. I CAN'T TELL YOU WHAT A THRILL IT IS TO BE SO CLOSE TO THESE AMAZING CREATURES.











A WONDERFUL 2 DAY TRIP TO THE BUSH AND THEN SUNDAY AT ORANGE FARM AND READY TO FACE A NEW WEEK IN THE AREA OFFICE.
