As promised, some highlights from my day trip to Kruger Park just across the border in South Africa. Quite a welcome to the wild continent I must say. I didn't see all of the Big Five (elephant, rhino, lion, leopard, buffalo), only the first two, but saw many others including the giraffe, zebra, hippo, baboon, warthog, impala, gazzelle, wildebeest and crocodile.
Posted a few pics here, but make sure to also check out the video below of our close encounter with a flustered elephant. It may not do justice to just how nerve-racking it was at one point. In fact if it wasn't for another vehicle suddenly accelerating to the right of us and scaring the big bull back, it really looked like he was about to charge. Then again it could have easily been my hard, De Niro-esque stare down that made him retreat.
For the record,that Shaggy song in the background just happened to be playing on the car radio at the time--I didn't dub it in or anything. That said, my mind is now racing with possibilities for the audio on the next clip. Stay tuned.
