Today’s game drive was a lot of fun – we found lions for the first time at Makanyi, enjoying a well-fed sleep after dispatching a young buffalo overnight.
After the game drive, Diane and I spent some time with Anja, the resort’s guest photography expert, who helped me cull and edit my photos and taught me more about how to use Lightroom in the process. Thank her for the improvements in today’s photos!
Our morning game drive started at 6:30am – the lodge calls all the rooms at 6am to make sure everyone is up (and the phone is not near the bedside, to force you to get out of bed to answer the call). The weather was decidedly on the nippy side, but we got to see a lot of interesting animals.
Our spotter is named Success, quite aptly – he ensured that we took the right routes on the long roads in the reserve.
I’ll let the rest of the pictures speak for themselves.
