After a night of waking intermittently to the sound of Lions we departed today for one long game drive through Etosha to another campsite within the park. What amazing experiences!
About 1 minute after setting off we spotted a Black Rhino grazing in the plains. We saw many animals today - it was phenomenal! Giraffe, Springbok, Oryx, Impala, Kudu, Elephants, Wildebeest, Zebra, and two Lion Prides.
We visited Etosha Pan which is a large salt pan in the middle of the park measuring 160km across. Every 10 or so years when there is a big rainy season the pan floods to become a lake and becomes home to thousands of Flamingoes but unfortunately it was dry today.
So far we feel extremely fortunate to have seen so many animals including 3 of the “big five”.... and we still have 48 days to go
