We woke up at sparrows and were out the gates at 6.05am. We were heading down to Croc Bridge so we turned left. Not 5 mins from camp the Brat and I spotted this handsome one strolling along the river! Some cars had overtaken us and didn't even see him.

The rest of the H4-2 was quiet and so was the H5, with just a sighting of a Lappet-faced Vulture. It was an overcast morning so all the pics are very dull.

We got onto the S25 and headed towards Croc Bridge. We turned down towards Hippo Pools and found two lovely big tuskers.

At the Pools we were greeted by Daniel who pointed out some lions lying quite a way off. A terrible pic, but just to show you.

We left the Pools and found the ellies again.

We made a quick stop at Croc Bridge and then headed up the S28. Apart from an ostrich and an ellie in the distance we saw nothing else.![Eyeeoll :O^](./images/smilies/eyesroll2.gif)
