Day 7: Today we traveled from Loskop Dam to Kruger National Park. The drive took over 6 hours! South Africa is a huge country! We arrived at Letaba Rest camp in the early evening. Since this is prime wildlife viewing time we got to see some coll animals on our way into the park to our camp.
Day 8: Tomorrow we will spend the day exploring Kruger. We will also visit the Elephant Museum in the park to learn more about elephants and their conservation in Kruger.
The cool, and not so cool, thing about Kruger is that visitors are not allowed out of their vehicles, except at designated points. Instead we have to stay inside our safari bus while driving around the park. However, the park has built lots of roads, with watering holes nearby, so that visitors don't need to get our of their cars. By doing so visitors are kept safe and the animals will come right up the vehicle. This is because a single vehicle is much less scary than a bunch of humans.
