We did finally arrive yesterday even ahead of schedule and managed to hit 4 green lights out of the 6 highway construction stops. So we got to Hlegamanzi in time for a game drive. Lovely evening. Saw some of the usual suspects warthogs, kudu, waterbuck, impala and a giraffe. But there was also a lion right by the east gate sitting on a kill - well mostly lying on a kill - so we could hardly make him out in the lion-colored grass. But he was there. And we went searching for three cheetahs. Joe, our ranger, saw them coming down the hill all the way across the valley. Faye and Jon claimed to see them too but I think they were just playing along. But Joe headed off to where he thought they might cross the road (as Melody requested that they should be agreeable and do just that). So we went down the road, turned around to head back and then heard monkeys chattering. So we turned around again and damn if I didn't see them in the grass and if they didn't just walk across the road in front of us.
