safari…

Last weekend was safari weekend! I have never not enjoyed a safari and this was no exception. Two days of nature and animals, it was truly amazing…have hundreds of pics ☺️

I cannot really find adequate words to describe it, so have just included some of my favourite pictures below instead.

One slightly disturbing experience however was when we saw some lions eat a buffalo – we were too late for the actual kill, to the disappointment of a few of the guys in the jeep! As we were watching, suddenly one of the female lions pulled out a baby buffalo from the killed buffalo…she didn’t actually eat it, just played with it…to my relief we could see that the baby was dead already, and after a while the male lion came to take it off the female and ate it! I know it what happens in the ‘circle of life’ here (cue Elton John)  but it was still super sad. 😢 I did take some quite ‘nasty’ pics of the whole ordeal – will leave them out for now, though!
