More From Kruger

Here is a species never before seen in Kruger National Park - a beautiful specimen of a driving Brooke Bell (on the right side of the car, left side of the road). Can be dangerous, but we were unharmed.

Hard to see, but that there is a crocodile on the far side of a watering hole.

Giraffe, of course, right outside our car window.

African elephant. Brooke was very good at spotting wildlife. After spotting this elephant, a fancy safari vehicle with lots of people in it drove by. The driver said, thanks for the spot!

Hippos! Apparently, these are the most dangerous of all safari animals because they are extremeely territorial. If you get between them and their watering hole, they will trample you. We remained safely on the far side.

Burchell's Zebra. Notice the smaller, greyer stripes in-between the larger black stripes.

A Windswept Sophia. A highlight of the day was getting to ride around in the car without wearing seat belts. The speed limit was 40 km and we needed all eyes looking out for "aminals," as Sophia called them.
