As part of our recent Blyde River Canyon trip, we took the opportunity to venture into Kruger for two days.

We made some progress on the Big Five, but sadly the leopards remained elusive. The lions made an appearance inside our first five minutes in the park, but unfortunately it was too dark for anything other than a black blob on the pictures. Four more Rhinos were also viewed to add to our Hluhluwe National Park collection, but only at a distance. The buffalo pictures were rubbish, so we are holding fire on their release pending an improvement.

We are now in Pretoria, of which we can't pass much comment because we've arrived in the dark and we leave for a six day proper Kruger safari on Saturday.

The Big Five
The leopard continues to elude me of the Big Five too, despite several safaris in several countries... Fingers crossed as I read your next entry on your proper safari in Kruger 😊
