Today we left Pilanesberg and headed to our second safari at Madikwe (on the Botswana border). When we got to the gate we were greeted with guns (due to rhino poaching concerns), however once we passed the gates we were greeted with hot towels. Imagine if we didn't have reservations!
Our lodge is breathtaking. Simply amazing.
The view out our window when we arrived.
(For our friends that know the story, this is the webcam we've been watching!)
Needless to say, I'm pretty thrilled with the places I booked so far!
The hide and seek game still needs a bit of tweaking.
There is a fire currently in a portion of Madikwe and they are setting back fires.
