Self Drive Safari






After shark diving we drove to Addo which was about a five and a half hour drive where we stayed the night to wake up to head to a self drive safari.  It was a really cool experience.  We stayed for over 7 hours just driving around and checking out wild elephants, zebras, birds, ostrich's tortoise's, warthogs, kudu's and more.  We were kinda bummed we were searching for the lions, rhinos and leopards, but were told it may have been too hot for them today to come out.  Most of the time we drove in silence, but when we weren't finding animals we put on the "circle of life" song from the Lion King, which helped round up some animals for our viewing pleasure.














braai
At night we did a braai (South Africa version of a BBQ) at the place we were staying.  This local guy showed us how to cook the meat on the grill and brush it with delicious spices and sauces he also had made sides to go along with it and we enjoyed a nice bottle of Pinotage to go with it.
