Holiday - Part 2

Day two of our adventure started in Kruger Park. we had the chance, earlier during our visit, to join a team on a night drive, but that was shorter and you tended to see much less. This time, we drove on our own and were able to see lots of cool animals (sometimes WAY close!). I believe we spent about 6 hours driving around the park and only covered about a fifth of the park.

All in all it was a nice relaxing time, but we did need to get moving because Laura found an Elephant Sanctuary on the way to Kruger that we were able to make a reservation for last minute.

At Elephant Whispers we had one of those experiences that you just don't have very often. We were able to learn a lot about the African Elephant and see it in action. It was actually way more interesting than we even thought it would have been. I think most of it had to do was when they talked about the elephants we actually got to have our hands on at the same time!










But, what took the cake was getting a chance to ride! it was a wonderful day, that was capped off with a nice ride at dusk to wind down.

and that's about it for our short little holiday!

Love,
Mikey and Laura
