We spent our first few days out on game drives looking for a cheetah who they think has cubs. Game drives are amazing (the best bit really...), you try to piece together the clues nature has left (tracks, smells, bent grass) and keep feeling like an excited kid sitting on the edge of your seat waiting for the next animal to pop up.

We also took a drive to see the two lions and their cubs - hard to believe we were sitting only metres (about 5) away from these beautiful creatures in the wild. They shot a Blesbok (big antelope) and we took it to the Lion area where Jack and Will had to drag it off the back of the truck upwind from where we thought the lions were. The above photo was taken from our car only a few minutes before he demolished the Blesbok.

Will is a hard Afrikaan who has spent his life on game parks and gets out of the truck only metres away from completely wild animals of every kind...it's great for us to be guided by someone with such experience but weird at the same time for two urbanites to be working so closely with someone like Will.

We also found two Rhino playing in the mud - the Rhino are incredible and look just like dinosaurs. They are one of our favourites and the other night, during a crazy night drive with beers, champagne and a spotlight that lasted until 1am, we found the baby Rhino.
