Our day started at 5.30am again as we left for a
game drive with our expert guide Tony through the Khwai concession. What a morning for game viewing!
We had another car adventure - a puncture this time!! Poor Tony...
In the afternoon, we had a Mokoro trip lined up. Mokoro are the traditional boats the locals traditionally used (and still use) to travel on the river. They used to be made of wood, but for environmental reasons are now made of fiberglass and are very long and narrow. One or two people sit behind each other and the poler steers the boat at the back using a long pole. It feels like being on the canals in Venice or punting in Oxford.

Again, it turned out to be a superb day that ended with a magnificent dinner! I hope you have enjoyed the pictures!

Wow!!!! What amazing photos! We have loved looking at them! I can't believe how close up you can get in your picture. The one of the lion's eyes is fantastic. What an adventure. Outdoor lab was fun. We only saw mule deer, a coyote, and Kelley called a trio of elk over with her elk calling device. I'm exhausted, but glad we had a good week overall. All is good at your home. They came and cleaned. We checked on the swamp drainage and all is well -- the bowl is dry. Bryce and I were at V Cottage so we stopped by to see how Amstel was doing. The front desk girl said he was doing great and had played with the long eared German Shepard earlier today. I was debating bringing him over today, but Lauren was over playing and we still had to go to COSTCO before home.
ReplyDeleteI think it is amazing at how near the animals get to you. Are you ever afraid or do your guides have stun guns? The lions looked pretty harmless in their toe pointe exercise. :) Too funny. However, I'd be a little worried if they were to get hungry while you drove by. Tonight ends daylight savings time. Yipppeee we get an extra hour! This is good! Love to you all! Enjoy and have a great lunch with Didier's friend in South Africa before he heads back to UK and to work. We will pick Dad up at the airport! ~ Carine & Co
