The Big FIVE!

day 21!!!!!
Fairy Glen Game Reserve

So we couldn't possibly visit the continent of Africa and not go on a Safari! I mean, we're the generation that grew up knowing every word of Lion King after all. It was only fitting that our last full day be spent on a game reserve as we sought to find the infamous 'big five.' What's the Big 5 you may ask? The five animals that are the most difficult and dangerous to hunt make up the big 5 and the list is made up of: Lions, African elephants, Cape Buffalos (which charged our jeep!) black&white Rhinoceros and Leopards. On our excursion, we were fortunate to see all of these except for the leopards!

we really didn't have to go to Fairy Glen to see weird animals
