Of course, the Kruger National Park isn’t only about the big cats

I will keep posting up more of the shots I have in the next few days. There are more of the Kruger, a whole bunch of trucks of course, and other scenes from our brief trip to South Africa.

Back from South Africa

I said that I was going to post a bunch while there… and… I didn’t. Why? Because we kept ourselves so busy in the Kruger, then in the Joburg area with family, and finally on the South Coast.

I’ll break up the photos, but here are some that we did take in the Kruger. I’ll start with the cats. We saw three separate lion prides, two of which were on kills. We also saw five leopards.

One pride gave me a good shot on their Zebra kill:
