We rose at 5.30am and went on a drive. We saw the usual antelopes, zebra, and giraffe. Later we also caught glimpses of banded mongooses, dwarf mongooses, a scops owl, baboons and a family of ground hornbills.

The wild life in the camp was even better- we had a family of dwarf mongoose, and big lizards living right by our accommodation. The waterhole was also very entertaining. We had a short swim to escape the heat, but the insect life in the pool got too much for us!

We ventured out again at 3:30 and see much the same as in the morning but cut it a little fine getting back to camp - we passed two vehicles stopped for speeding then passed through the gates literally as they were being closed!
