A Few more Leopards

This was such a special moment as it's the first time in my life I've seen a leopard in the wild and I got to spend about an hour with him.

Dusk and Dawn .....

The colors of the sky just seem more prominent the further north you go. I know how a sunset can be a cliche to some but there was a special magic somehow and I wanted to share with those who feel the same as I do :-)

Sossusvlei and the Dead vlei

Everyone talks about Soussusvlei but before you get there is the Dead Vlei. Much more spectacular and stunningly beautiful. There is even a Lost Vlei next to it I hear but didn't know at the time which is supposed to be even more stunning. Just a few tips for anyone planning on going that way. There is a short drive you would need a 4x4 for but if you don't have don't stress as there are 4x4 game viewing cars to give you a lift there and back for R100 per person. They must make a fortune wow.
I have also included some other sand dunes in the same area for you to enjoy.












While waiting for our lift at Soussusvlei we saw an Eagle Owl fast asleep in the tree above us. Another tip is when you walk up these dunes, take water and when at the top take off your socks and shoes roll them down the side and walk down the side of the dune bare foot. It's an amazing feeling.












Zippy Zebra







Giant Giraffe ....













A Few more Lion

We were lucky to see this but sadly the girls never moved they just lay their with full tummies.








A few more Elephants

With limited and slow data on the road I could only load a few pics at a time so now that I'm home I'll add a few more in small batches in case you're interested.
