We finally arrive at Mapunga Bush Camp after a long day of driving. |
|
|
We sign in to the camp and walk around a bit |
|
|
We are now officially Mammals of the Kafue National Park! |
|
|
We admire some of the skulls they have collected. This one is a hippo's. |
|
|
Buffalo |
|
|
Roan (a type of antelope) |
|
|
Sleepy time! |
|
|
In the morning we pack up and hit the road. |
|
|
We read our book while our friend drives us to our next camp. |
|
|
Eventually our friend has to go to a meeting, so we drop him off and continue on our merry way. |
|
|
We help prepare food with our friends at the camp. The food we made tasted very good. |
|
|
We also had pineapple juice that was really good. |
|
|
We made a huge fire that was very warm. |
|
|
Another night that we are glad for a warm sleeping bag. |
|
|
In the morning we get up and brush our teeth. |
|
|
We get a big drink of water before leaving for a game drive. |
|
On our game drive we saw a lot of antelope, mostly lechwe and puku, plus LOTS of hippos.
|
|
|
We also saw this lechwe skull when looking at the animals |
|
|
Looking through binoculars at the papyrus. I think we saw a bird. |
|
THE NEXT DAY
|
We enter the new lodge where we are staying and look around. |
|
|
After we get situated, we go out to play football. |
|
|
There is a big baobab tree near to camp called the Nkondakamwale. |
|
|
Listening to music before bed. |
|
|
Our bed has a bug net! no more of those pesky mosquitoes! |
|
|
We eat lunch with some people also from America. What are the chances!? |
