Journey to Africa

Today we took the 2 am flight to Joburg arriving about 6:30am after a 10 hour all night time flight. Thank goodness for premium economy.
Easy process through the airport then grabbed our hire car for the drive to Welgevonden.
Easy drive up the motorway then on to the turnoff to the Western Gate. Very rough gravel road for the last 16 km to the gate. Arrived at 1:00 pm then were transferred by game drive vehicle to Nungabane Lodge where we were welcomed by the entire staff of the lodge. We gave the afternoon drive a miss and went to our room after lunch for a welcome nap. Took a walk up to the hide at the lodge where we were lucky enough to see zebras, gnus, and then out of nowhere came a mother and baby rhino for a drink. Amazing sight!
The other guests at the lodge were a party of Germans. All quite friendly. Crashed into bed after dinner in anticipation of our 5:30 am wake up call for our first game driveBaca lagi
