They both watch us wearily and are sooned joined by another mum and baby. 

Baby elephant joined his mother after noticing the spectators. 

Soon after the lions we spotted Elephants. 

A pride of lions cruise along beside the road on our second trip into the Kruger Park. We didn't expect to see them. This was literally shot after five minutes driving into the park. 

Zebra blending into the foliage. 

We were rather fortunate this year to have two vacations. The first was at the Drakensburg and this one was at the Kruger Park this week. At the start of our drive into the Kruger National Park, we first encountered these buck. They reminded me of Bambi and a book called The Yearling.

A shot of some foliage taken whilst meandering through the trails at Castle Burn.
 

Navalya watching an animated show in the afternoon. 

The fast flowing river after the morning rains. The water was really tempting. 

A different view of the resort and mountains. There were five cascading dams leading to the main lake. Fly fishing (for Rainbow Trout) was permitted in all of these dams. 

The children braving the short jetty. 

The picturesque setting of the resort. The calm and tranquility was exactly what we needed. 

Tiny mushrooms found by Navalya and Siddhartha on one of our many walks. 

Reminded me of Shadowfax from the Lord of the Rings. 

The Castle Burn resort in the Southern Drakensburg region, South Africa. Our holiday destination in November. 

A lion cub lazing about at the country club. Ofcourse he was in an enclosure... 

Ready for tee off. 

Warthogs frolicking the fairway. They managed to squeeze in under the fence. 

A picturesque home on this country estate.
