Final Game Drive with New Sightings

This morning was our final game drive. It was a lovely morning with perfect temperatures. There had been rumours of African Wild Dogs entering the area last night. The rangers have an uncanny ability to find them. Just 20 minutes into our drive a herd of Impala is in full flight. The Wild Dogs have caught a young Impala and are enjoying breakfast. A pack of at least 10. 
Next, we find three sleeping lions and soon after, a mom and daughter leopard pair. 
Near the river we come across a single hippo out of the water. This proves my point that they ar not always in the water during the day! This one stares at us for a while and then settles back into the mud.
It was a lovely morning and now we must pack. First flight, to Johannesburg. Second one, to Frankfurt. Third one, home!!
