The past few days have been a lot of fun. To start, in about an hour of our game drive, we saw a beautiful female cheetah drinking water at a close-by mud pan. While viewing her, out of the blue, far off the road, 3 lionesses were making their way towards us. Sadly the cheetah ran off, but we had a great sighting of the 3 lionesses. Then we experienced nature’s beauty as a thunder storm started to form in the distance.

Back at the lodge, we could hear and see the thunder storm, bright lightning up in the thick clouds. It was really amazing. To top it all of for me I also got the chance to catch two more snakes (not close to the lodge); there is always something exciting and entertaining happening here in the Kapama private game reserve.
