Holiday Pt.1 –P.E. and Addo

After leaving COTT,Jon+I spent a couple of days at P.E. where we explored the city+spent time on a beach+in a pool.

We also hired a car+spent a couple of days at Addo Elephant Park which was amazing. We saw loads of animals including kudu, leopard tortoises, meerkats, warthogs, ostriches, elephants, spotted hyenas, lions, zebras, red hartebeests, a black-backed jackal, a buffalo, spring buck, vervet monkeys, rock monitor lizards, a scrub hare, and the rare flightless dung beetles!! We were also lucky to see lots of baby ones of ostriches, warthogs, lions and elephants.

We stayed the night in a forest cabin but forgot our alarm clock so I had an amazing idea that if we drank lots of water than we’d wake to go to the loo!! It worked, but too well, we woke every hour!! At least we didn’t miss the sunrise tour we’d booked ourselves on though, and this was when we saw 3lion cubs playing together so it was worth the sleepless night!
