Another Night At Senyati's Watering Hole

We got back from Zimbabwe in time for a light dinner and another hour or two watching elephants at the watering hole. Warning: should you go to Senyati, book 2-3 nights, since the elephants don't necessarily show up every day or night.












In the foreground here they're eating grass; interestingly, they
can trim the grass with their trunks without pulling it up by the
roots

Baboon Sunrise

I was up early one morning at Senyati, hoping to see more elephants, but only a pack of baboons was there, passing through.

So our driver decides to pull them out...Jenni, Howard, and Kaye
brace...just in case the chain snaps; it didn't

At the midway "stretch point"

Obviously a euphemism; for the guys anyway

Elephants too


More warthogs
