The best part about flying is being able to choose a destination which would be far to drive to and then get there in a zip! Also great to have good mates who fly and can share these amazing experiences. We are so privileged to be able to do this and explore some of the incredible parts of our country. Mkuze area to the north of our Province is home to several huge game reserves and dozens of safari lodges. We chose Zebra Hills Game Reserve which is a game lodge and reserve home to the big 5 and collectively the group saw 4 of the big 5 in 2 days... lion, buffalo, rhino, and leopard. We saw about 10 giraffe and loads of Nyala, Impala, Kudu, warthog, a croc, Zebra, and Wildebees and had a few days of chilling and drinking!!
Beautiful sunsets, hot days and freezing nights |
The clouds had formed over the Ubombo Mountains to the left when we took off from Mkuze for home. Fortunately the sky was clear ahead.

The baby croc at the waterhole will be moved when he gets a little bigger and wants to eat everything within reach |
