South Africa: Day Four (23 October)


The minibus picked us up at 7.45am and it took six hours to drive to the Kruger National Park, with just one stop at Milly’s on the way.

We went on our first game drive straightaway and had already seen warthogs, impala, giraffes and kudu (another kind of antelope) when we heard someone had spotted a leopard. This is very rare so we quickly drove to meet them and we got to see it too. We also saw the oldest elephant in the park, Mulani, so could cross two of the Big Five off our list.

We had dinner under the stars in an African Boma
. There was lots of choice, including crocodile meat but Morris and I didn’t try any.
