We enjoyed a real nice break in camp although today without spotting a leopard but we again noticed the very well camouflaged lizard on a tree close to our bungalow.
I forgot to mention that when we wanted to cook water in the kettle early morning nothing happened the kettle was broken so I improvised and cooked the water in a pot on the hot plates which also worked, however, took longer. So before we left for our afternoon drive we stopped at the reception and I told them about the kettle and what to say when we returned back from our afternoon drive the brand new kettle waited already for us in our bungalow.
Then it was already time to do our afternoon drive and for sure we decided once again for our beloved magical square now already for the final time during that trip. In the beginning we were held up by a herd of elephants
who were feeding and some of them even decided to take a bath on a sunny afternoon.
We could have spent the rest of the afternoon with them, however, finally they crossed the river and moved out of sight so we still had enough time to carry on and came across a couple of warthogs
whereas the group decided to walk on the road which took quite a while.
Finally we again reached the highwater bridge across the Sabie and Sand rivers and now we took the shot into the other direction as we already did during our morning drive.
It cleared up finally over the day with blue sky but luckily it was not that hot again as at the beginning of our trip. We stopped for a beautiful lilac breasted roller
and more elephants but overall it was quiet but nevertheless we enjoyed the drive.
