Hippo Lakes Tent First Full Day

Bob and I skipped breakfast and lunch. We sat on our deck and debriefed about what God was teaching each of us and how He was leading us.

Wesley gave us about a 20 minute warning for a game drive. We quickly got ready and were met by the lodge that is under construction. This is our first official game drive. Our ranger guide was Shawn. He was fantastic and extremely knowledgeable.

After the game drive, we grabbed our cold weather clothing because for dinner we were heading across the lake for a fire and South African Bush Braai aka outdoor BBQ. Dinner was again amazing and fellowship was great.

We went on night game drive with Anton after dinner. Anton is the Operations Manager at Hippo Lakes. He is also the head game ranger so he wears many hats.

It is clear that Anton loves his job and he has such a passion for serving others.

On this night game drive, his passion for the animals under his care was so very clear. He would stop the vehicle to tell us about animals we were seeing. We all got so carried away with seeing and learning about the animals that it was after 11 PM before we made it back to our tent.

Another spectular day at the TEN campus!Weiterlesen
