A four day detox is what was needed.

After five months of really hard work writing projects and assignments to qualify to write the Estate Agents exams we both agreed that a break away from it all on our own was what was needed. We decided to go to The Kingdom Resort which is only a stones throw from Pilanesberg as they were offering a great midweek special - Monday to Thursday night. We would just have to pay to go in every day. Little did we know that it was the same week as SANParks offers free entrance every day. Due to some confusion with regard to the conditions for free entry at the entrance gates we both got free entry on two days, on two days only Joan paid and one day we both paid.
DAY 1 MONDAY 12 SEPTEMBER - AFTERNOON.
Our first sighting was of Mavuso one of the big bull elephants that roam around alone.
Lengau Dam.
A while later a nice couple stopped us and told that there was a pride of about 13 lion on a kill at the historical site on Moloto Drive. By the time we arrived there there were only a few very full and exhausted lioness lying around.
Then behind some long grass and bushes we saw some lion at the kill - not a good view though.
Two hippo in the waterhole at Pilanesberg Centre.
On Hippo Loop at Mankwe Dam.
Finally for today some ellies playing in Lengau Dam.
