Day 8: the safari

From Great Zimbabwe, we went to Antelope Park, some 200km and a lot of potholes away, heading towards Bulawayo. It is a game park with 80 lions, zebras, giraffes, kudus, antelopes, impalas, etc. Mom and Jan were quite excited at the idea of sleeping in a tent, though honestly, with the amount of comfort in tents here (bathroom, twin beds, bedside lamps), you can hardly call it 'camping'. Still, being out in the wild allows you to enjoy those famous african sunsets...

But it is still adventure, especially when moms wakes up at 5am because the lions are roaring ;-)
So today, Mams and Jan went on a carriage ride into the wild, and Thomas and me are a bit more adventurous, going to go swim with elephants and cuddle with lion cups ;-)
