Boomslang

Sundowners by the hippo pool and a mad dash to try a see a Leopard made our evening game drive quite exciting even though the Leopard snuck away! Unfortunately the morning game walk was OFF! The strong wind made walking too dangerous, too easy to surprise an animal or for them to surprise us, so off in the truck again. Saw a beautiful male elephant busy eating branches from a tree it pushed over and an impressive herd of Buffalo. 

Mike the bush guide found a Boomslang in his room, highly toxic……..

Arrived at Caroline and Flips lovely house in the bush, complete with pool and several thatched outbuildings. 

After breakfast we tried to chase out an elephant that had broken down the fence and was busy pushing down trees and making a mess of the garden, but had to retreat. By the afternoon he was back and we had to have a go again, however he got a bit too agitated and we had to make rather a quick get away in the hilux!

Quad bike safari was in the afternoon, what brilliant fun!
