Sable is turning out okay. Rooms not like Rattrays but still comfortable. The bar is actually better designed for socialization more seating in conversation circles. Food the same menus we had on Group one. Today they turned up with a big bowl of passion fruit. I guess the Rattrays chef told them to be sure I had enough passion fruit. Rooms all much closer to the lodge. With our private safari vehicle boarding we are very private.

Last nights game drive was great with two leopards. One was a 9 month old cub left behind by the mother that went hunting. So great watching her as she discovered everything around her. Practicing stalking a piece of grass.

The other leopard was seen in the heavy reeds around the river. As we were driving to follow her we almost ran into a hippo. Suddenly it was there right in front of the vehicle. Both the hippo and our vehicle were totally surprised. Fortunately the hippo quickly retreated.

This afternoon was slow. Looking for lions that could not be found. We did see four different rhino, some elephants and giraffe.

We will see what this afternoon brings.
