Just this past week, I was lucky enough to spend a Saturday doing two amazing safaris. The first one was at Addo Elephant National Park, where we were in our own bus. The second safari was at Schotia where we sat in open Range Rovers. It was such an incredible experience to be so close to all the beautiful creatures native to South Africa.

This is a Red Heart Beast...also known as a bikini bottom.
His nickname comes from the his white rear which appears to
have been in a bikini bottom while he tanned :)
Adorable baby warthogs!

safari (we got to try antelope goulash!)
