Krueger National Park

I have been on a wonderful blogging sabbatical. Why? You might ask – simple, I would answer, because my family came to visit! We had the most amazing time! It's just too much to write everything that we did, but I will do my best to tell the story in pictures.
We started by heading off to South Africa. We stayed at a beautiful lodge named the Rissington InnThe Rissington Inn is just outside of Krueger National Park – that's where we had a fantastic morning drive.
The park is filled with lots of wildlife just begging for us to find it. I often view game drives as one big game of where's Waldo…you know that animals are in there, you just have to find them.

On this particular morning our game of where's Waldo was particularly easy as there where four cheetahs hunting when we first entered the park.

Then a little while later we came upon a rhino and a slightly angry elephant
(He apparently woke up on the wrong side of the waterhole)

Of course the most amazing part of the day was when we had our first ever Leopard sighting!

I have never seen a Leopard (and they sure work hard at not getting you to see them), but this guy was hiding in the bushes not far away from an unsuspecting group of Impalas.

As game drives go, this was certainly one of the best…and it got even better when later that night Megan and I went on a night drive!
