THE BOYS ARE BACK

I always find the last game drive with guests the most special. We were driving past a dam filled with hippos and the sun was slowly getting behind the clouds, the hippos found it to be the perfect temperature to leave the dam to go for a morning snack! As we had stopped to view the hippos, we heard some alarm calls from impala just in front of us. Suddenly, the hippos disappeared into the bushes and we quickly got to where the impala were alarming. My tracker whose name is Mott, shouted with excitement, "lions, lions!!". Mott quickly jumped off the tracker seat as the vehicle stopped and joined us inside. We approached the lions and followed them as they were scent marking the area. After some time, they finally laid down. We spent a good amount of time with them and the impala eventually left to go to a safer place.
