As we left Erindi, a herd of Impala cut in front of us, one of them got such a fright when he saw us, he leapt into the air, so high, I'm sure he would have cleared our bonnet in need!
Had a couple of Sharon detours on the way to Zelda's - my guesstimates on the gps, again!! Ah well, all in the interests of exploring.
Zelda's has a lovely setting and is tastefully decorated.
Tonight, we'll have lowing cows in stead of lion, but, with a lot of imagination....
Hah, on second thoughts we will listen to a grunting leopard. Her name is Tornado. She is 18 years old and was orphaned around 4 weeks of age. Mum probably lost to poachers based on spoor they found near Tornado. Has extremely large enclosure.

How about this prickly character for company
Had a lovely supper at the lodge followed by a couple of drinks at the bar. Interesting company.
Battled like hell to find our way back to camp in the pitch black dark. Found a trampoline, a fishpond and a couple of walls that we definitely didn't know existed and had never come across before ... would have remembered the pain! Realized we were heading in wrong direction! (How astute!).
Retraced steps back to bar, shuffling along with arms outstretched, giggling like schoolgirls... Really was the blind leading the blind! Eventually, and I mean eventually, we found our campsite. Lovely hot shower and off to bed.
