Day 4: Bakubung Lodge (we see an elephant!)
We flew out of Cape Town bright and early, back to Jo’burg (as the locals call it) and then drove out to Pilanesberg National Park to stay at the Bakubung Lodge. As soon as we unpacked, we started down to the dining area and spied our first elephant! Just chilling out, eating a tree. I’m still getting the hang of this telephoto lens, but here are the pics I got. (It was dusk and we were losing sunlight fast)
We also saw 2 warthogs, right up next to the fence. Crazy!
Tomorrow morning is our first game drive, so we’ll be up taking more pics. Then we’re sitting in with Elliot in the Morning (show) on DC101 (click to the right to listen over your computer, or tune in to 101.1FM) between 6-10am (your time). They’ll be talking about the trip, and they’ll have us and the other winners on here and there.
I have a video of the elephant I’m working on uploading. That’ll be up in a little bit.
Gotta charge all my batteries and clean off all my disks.
Later!
