We rounded out our safari at the Garden Route Game Lodge where we got a chance to see oodles of animals including all of the Big Five except the ever-elusive leopard. As it was at Addo, the staff at Garden Route blew us away with scrumptious feasts, luxurious chalet accommodations, and impeccable service. Our knowledgeable guide, Ronald, taught us so much about the flora and fauna of South Africa as he introduced us to the reserve and its inhabitants. In the evening, we stayed up swimming in the pool and then playing games with the great students who traveled with us. We had tea and biscuits in the African bush on an early morning game drive. For animal enthusiasts like us, safaris are pure all-around fun, best conveyed not by more words, but rather by another photo montage like this one:
