Ingrid's Safaris

Had a lovely 12 day holiday in Umhlanga Rocks where we stayed at Cabana Beach Resort . I love the sun rises over the sea and if the time is right a moon rise is special. Lots of time to relax at the pool with a lovely view of the sea or pool.

Another amazing trip to the Kruger Park. Because of it being a long weekend I had to change the route and tried different places, which turned out extremely well. Pilgrims Rest was interesting in that the dry river bed was a hive of miners digging for gold, unlike the old days where they would be panning for gold in the river. The lovely panoramic route with Berlin Falls, Bourke's Luck Potholes, Blyde River Canyon 3 Rondavels and then driving through the beautiful Abel Erasmus Pass towards Hoedspruit.
After staying overnight at a lovely lodge near Hoedspruit we spent a night at a great tented camp in Timbavati Game Reserve, which is in the Greater Kruger. Our 2 open game drives were fantastic with wonderful sightings.
Our last night was at Skukuza in the Kruger Park and in our first hour after entering the park we saw elephant, rhino and a leopard in a tree.

Just done my favorite walk to the Blue Grotto from Drakensberg Sun. 2 days ago it got suddenly cold and there was snow on the mountains. Today beautiful, warm day.

Another great trip to the Kruger recently. Seeing the beautiful birds in addition to all the lovely animals is just as special. Recently the park experienced very bad flooding after heavy rains and certain camps had to be evacuated.

Just come back from doing a lovely safari to the Kruger Park. Had a special leopard sighting. The leopard was stalking some zebra and gave chase but he was not fast enough.

Today is a grey rainy day.....we have had a fair amount of rain in the past few weeks, but thankfully it cleared for my visits to Pilanesberg and we have had some good sightings. Close encounter of rhino and baby with cheetah and her big babies.

The stork has been very busy in Pilanesberg Game Reserve. 🙂
We have just had a lovely week at Bakubung in Pilanesberg. After lovely rains, everything is looking green and fresh and the park is full of babies.

Gosh! So much has happened the past year and yet it feels like nothing is happening. Needless to say, there have been no visitors to show our beautiful parks. This is a good time for us to spend more time in our beautiful country. Towards the end of last year a visit to the Kruger Park and in December a week in Pilanesberg.
