Night Drive










The first night we arrived at the Wilderness Camp we went on a night drive. The drive began at 4pm and lasted until 8pm. Once it got dark around 6pm, we began looking for the 'cats'. We were hoping to see a leopard, but instead we were very fortunate to find 4 generations of lions. Our driver had to go off-road to find them, but it was so worth it! There were baby cubs, young lions, mother lions. And then we moved in with the other game vehicles to gaze upon the male lion taking it easy on a cliff. It was almost as if he knew we were all taking photos. He sat and posed for all of us, and then as we were driving away he laid his head down.
