South Africa – Kruger Park

On Day 2 we saw giraffes, a baboon family, turtles and impala. We drove further North on dirt roads with not as many sightings today. As we were trying to get out of the gate for 6:00 before shutdown 2 elephants locked tusks on the road right in front of us. That caused us enough stress that I never even get a photo. We thought they were going to start fighting;  however it never happened. One just untangled himself and moved on. Whew! We later thought they were teenagers just playing around but definately not at the time.

These fellows are so immense; it was awe inspiring when they emerged from the bush and not just a little breathtaking as were more than twice the size of our little rental car.
