Imfolozi dag 13: Some more rain
Dieren vandaag gezien / Animals spotted:
Elephant
Cheetha
Wathog
Impala
Blue wildebeest
This morning no session and I could sleep in. Guess what happened, I woke up at 5.15 am. I tried to go back to sleep but this didn’t work. At 6 am I was bored so I got up and made me some breakfast. Later Emilie joined me and we had a lovely conversation.
During this morning I did some admin of the raw data and the logbook. We also played Uno with: Ryan, Estelle, Emilie and Jo. It was a very good way to entertain ourselves. We had pancakes for lunch and then most of them went to bed except for Estelle and me. I cleaned one of the walls in the kitchen so Ryan can hang his photo on the wall. It look so much cleaner now the bee hives are gone.
Afternoons session started at 3 pm. We found CM19 again near camp. And then on to different animals. We didn’t found anything we were scanning for. The weather changed again and it started raining. We made our way home but we bumped into a big herd of elephants (70 to 80 elephants). Waiting for them to leave we saw some strange, funny and shocking behaviour. One of the sub adults flattened a soda can and then ate it. This can’t be good. Can’t people just clean up their mess?
When the finally all passed us we could drive of and go back home. Under way we were filmed by Ryan. He really likes to play with the GoPro from Estelle.
