This was a common occurrence and there were 2 security people stationed there to ensure we did not run into problems. The baboons in the camp were a real nuisance because they would snatch food from the tables. Friday and Saturday we left the camp at 6:00 am and rode through the park on an open aired jeep for four hours and then went out again from 4:00 pm until 8.
We spent 2 hours from 6 – 8 in the evening using a high powered light to see many animals. It was during the evening we saw 3 hyenas. It was amazing! There were animals every time we turned a corner.

Lots of impalas and zukus as well as other deer like animals. Both evenings we saw some lions, they had just finished eating a recent kill and were relaxing by the side of the road. Zebras, elephants, giraffes, hippos, water buffalos, water bucks, impalas, warthogs, monkeys, baboons and numerous birds of wonderful colours were around every corner. We also saw one leopard during the weekend across from the camp on the river’s edge. We had a great guide who worked in the park for over 20 years and knew where to go to find the sights. Sunday was another travel day and I spent 11 hours getting back to Blantyre. Tired but very pleased.
