Sunset on Mala Mala ~ the Drakensberg Mountains, rising to
11,424 feet in the distance.
Evening game drives on Mala Mala Game Reserve brought spectacular sightings with many animals on the hunt ~ lion, leopard, wild dogs, white rhinos etc. We were never disappointed. The remaining days were beautiful under the clear blue skies, warming up to comfortable temperatures for animal and bird sightings....and of course elevenses and sundowners in the bush!

The elephant herds were huge this visit, and
each day we enjoyed time spent watching these amazing
families go about their daily routine.
Rattray's Camp on Mala Mala is a stunning place to stay.
I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to visit here
twice enabling me to enjoy the best wildlife viewing,
the excellent accommodations, and the great people
who work here.
This is the final post on my recent safari. It was amazing.
I'm so happy my husband was able to come along this time.
I thank my best friend Paula for making it all possible............and
I'd love to do it all over again some day!
I really hope you enjoyed this journey and viewing the
incredible wildlife. This IS Africa and I've tried my best
to share its amazing beauty with you.
