Today we travelled east towards one of Africa’s most famous wildlife destinations: Etosha National Park.
The drive was another long one, but the excitement grew as we approached the park. Before long, the first wildlife sightings began. Zebras and giraffes were quickly followed by elephants, and then came the animals everyone had been hoping to see. Rhinos, lions… and for a few very lucky participants, even a cheetah! It didn’t take long before cameras were filling up once again.
By the time we reached Onguma, everyone had plenty of stories to share over dinner. Despite the long drive, there was still work waiting for us. The balloons had to be prepared for tomorrow morning’s flight, but it was decided to wake up earlier and do it in the morning, now we have good practice and doesn’t take long! Sleeping inside a private reserve, knowing that wildlife is roaming just beyond the campsite, certainly adds something special to the evening.
