Today we went on a game drive to two game reserves that are connected to each other. Hluhluwe (pronounced Shoe-Shoe-/L/weh) and Umfolozi (pronounced Oem-foe-low-zee). I don't have a lot to say, as I think the pictures speak for themselves.
We did see a lion but he was too far away to take a picture. Overall we saw 3 of the big 5.
The BIG 5 are the following: -Elephant -Leopard -Lion -Rhino -Buffalo

 We got up pretty close and personal with these critters! |
 Who are you and what are you doing in my space? |

 We had lunch at a local lodge with a beautiful view. |
 Then this guy happened... |

Here's a video of him walking in front of us crossing the street...

And the countryside is real pretty too. |

You know you are in Africa when you are woken up at 6am by a troupe of monkeys banging on your roof! |
 |
Actually I would have thought that was a given! |
