On Wednesday afternoon, 25 October 2017, we were reminded of the enormous force of nature that surrounds us. We do not mean the wild animals. Not too far from our lodge, a bushfire kept us on our toes. Because of changing winds the battle costed us a lot of nerves, but at 9pm the fire was under control.

Last Thursday, the biggest safari highlight of the year happened, just in front of our eyes. After a long time we discovered the wonderful leopard “Munye”. We followed him for a short time when he was walking through the savannah. Then we saw how he killed a warthog right next to our vehicle. Our guests followed the spectacle and were blown away by this once in a lifetime experience.
