    Getting TO/AROUND: Hans, Wim and I got around HLUHLUWE by Car. The roads are well maintained for self-drive, which we did. We all had a lot of fun "looking" for animals to "shoot" with our cameras. We played a game of who would be the first to spot an animal in the bush or trees and when we did see one it was "Impala at two o'clock" or "warthogs up ahead". I must admit that even though Wim was driving, he was still the best at finding the well-camouflaged animals.
    There are also guided tours available, which is probably a good idea too, as we were disappointed that we didn't see any Elephants. They are very timid and hard to find, but I'm sure the guides know how to find them. Also the warden informed us as to what area there was a sighting of Elephant, but we still didn't find them.

     Great idea to live in a tree house! Actually I can understand how the Black Rhinoceros could get aggressive and charge motor vehicles -- I feel like doing that myself sometimes, LOL. Maybe I'll come back and be a Black Rhinoceros in my next life.

     That was a great trip you had, animal spotting and living in the tree house. When we met some wild reindeer in Lapland, I wanted to stroke them, did you feel like stroking the animals you met? :)Interesting, informative and beautifully illustrated page.

     Looks nice to stay in a treehouse for a few days! And how nice to see some great wild animals!
