Where the wild things are. (Part I - Ngala)

You can't go to Africa and not see the animals. There are SO many different ways to do a safari to suit all kinds of budgets and travellers.

For our last visit to South Africa, the boys were only 8 and 10 and I was after an easy life. Holidays with kids is never truly a 'holiday'. Unless of course you do it the soft way (and the hard way on the budget).

We stayed at two &Beyond camps in South Africa - Ngala and Kirkman's Kamp. I'm pretty sure I cried  each time we checked out.

Bush lessons. The best kind.

Pussy cat. First night, first predator, happy boys.
You ARE kidding aren't you? Did you both not just see the lion? I'm holding on.

The model.

So sweet. Look at those eyelashes!


Gorgeous Ngala lounging.

Tracker in training.

Nothing quite like an African sunset.






Impala poo spitting competition. Not many entrants. Plenty of laughing spectators though.



Learning to track with dung and prints. Learned more in 3 days than 3 weeks at school.


Magic flying sticks.
