Into The Wild

Sunday was an awesome day! We went to Krugersdorp (Game Reserve) and drove our car around to look at native SA animals. We had a little 'encounter' with the dominant male of the lion pride (Mufasa - DJ named him). We were driving around and he took an interest in our car, he began following us, then biting it... We now have a large gash in the bumper (don't tell the rent a car place). We watched the lion feeding (half a cow) and took many pictures and videos, of which a few are posted. It was amazing!!

The real highlight came when we visited Rhino and Lion Natural Sanctuary. After driving about for a bit we stopped into a visitor center that had tiger and lion cubs. We paid a small fee to get bit and scratched by them! It was awesome! We also have many many more pictures- they just can't all go on the blog!

We spent today at Child Academy, it was a rough first day trying to figure out what to do with our time. This week is the students holiday break so there were not as many as there will be next Monday. Still it was a blast!

More later,
