Mark's brother and wife (Todd and Mary Jo) came to the farm for a visit this weekend. We enjoyed a braai together and showed them the dam and waterfall where we like to hang out. Since Mark comes home in a week we wanted to get another trip into Kruger to see the Big 5. Michele and kids joined us and we had a great day. Waking at 4:30 AM to drive 90 minutes to potentially see lions, rhinos, giraffe, etc was no big deal. We were rewarded in a big way today. We saw rhinos in two different spots as well as 2 female lions by a watering hole. They were a mere 10 feet from our van, lounging and sleeping in the shade. We have some amazing photos to share! Also a group of 7 giraffe, hippos playing and wrestling in the water, elephants, monkeys, birds, crocodile, etc. It is an amazing place and I am sure Michele and I will go back often with the 6 kids.
Planning to go to Mozambique this week from Wed through Sunday. Please take care of Mark when he gets home next Monday the 11th. (His 50th b-day is Oct 16th). :)
