So now we are at Jamala in Madikwe. This is a little slice of heaven. Fantastic waterhole that is very active. The animals come for the water and also for the minerals in this particular piece of land. We have seen hot spots like this before where animals congregate.

On arrival the waterhole was very busy. There were a lot of zebras running around playing. Wildebeest, Impala and then a big elephant came in as well just stunning. That afternoon we went looking for the wild dogs. They were quite a distance away but worth the trip. When we arrived at the dogs they were sleeping. However they started moving around. We were sitting with one dog and a brown hyena was coming. He got very close then the situation was getting very interesting. We had an Italian older couple with us and at the moment the hyena got really close HIS PHONE RANG. Of course the hyena turned and ran. I must admit we were pretty irritated with our vehicle companions.

Driving home we decided to play stay at the lodge and not go out at all. . The storm has bought really cold temperatures and the waterhole is so good. That was a great decision it was bitterly cold this morning. They keep saying that this is highly unusual. I have been here at this time of the year before and never experienced anything like this before. The weather on our safari was perfect.

Pam and Jim are having massages, Ken is working on pictures and I am doing this post and just saw a bunch of elephants coming to the water hole. So bye bye for now
