Our Last Day at Ulusaba

Our Last Day at Ulusaba

Well it's the last 5am wake up call, the last safari trip and as if to say it's time to go the wind is whipping around the Rock Lodge, it's much cooler than the previous days and the sky is covered with dark grey clouds. This morning we take extra clothes as it is not going to be a warm drive.

5am comes around far too quickly, especially when you have been out in the bush partying with the locals. Even so I jump out of bed and headed out to the balcony to see the sunrise, imagine my surprise when I see the veld completely covered in fog, it was quite breathtaking and totally unexpected. I couldn't even see Safari Lodge.

5am and that damn wake up call, especially painful this morning as I've now reached the ripe old age of 60 years, but this is Ulusaba and there is no sleeping in! So up and dressed Kelly and I headed for the bar to meet up with Johan and the rest of our crew and what a cruel bunch they, are no sympathy for old folk.

 I must be getting use to this 5am wakeup call because this morning I was out of bed, quick splash of water to the face and dressed ready to go by 5:15am. Our group met at the bar and off we went in search of the Cheetah we had seen, with it's kill, last night.
