Thanks Dewi, from a master photographer !
Harrys time to go then !
Pumbaa,Flutterby and Nan thanks I enjoyed the cheetah sighting very much.
What made it cool is spotting them from faaaar then waiting for them.
H.e they say you can spot a hippo coming by the bubbles that rise to the surface...so true
General Gump, thanks for the effort !

I obviously survived the night, the lions had gone silent,
so each time a jackal yapped a warning we would search for them with the spotlight, whilst we sat around the fire.
We had an elephant bull come stop next to the tent at midnight, lay listening to him ...willing him to move on

After a quick coffee we packed and went back to the waterhole

That's a very old buffalo which isn't scared of the lions
Any pictures of this huge camp and high fences around it
