I am always saying to myself how lucky are you to be so close to that environment. But on the other side, it is probably different to live there in terms of safari experience. You are more used to it as you can do it more often. You still like it for sure, but I am triving for it to happen again and I am sure it will.
When I saw three leopards in one day, I ended playing jackpots etc. as I know I spent my luck that day :)
We have stayed at St. Lucia for two night and did explore the vicinity which is trully spectacular.
Thinking about African wildlife makes me really want to return there.
Now would probably be the good time cost and crowd related.
Well we will see what the future holds.
Hava a nice one!
I am looking to visit St Lucia in June/July, we normally travel up in May with summers running longer into cool season I think it will be better slightly later. Viewing is also better during drier season, shorter days not a problem. We are fortunate having such diversity on offer within three hour travel at the most.
Kruger Park many years ago saw all the big cats in the week we spent there, also the amazing wild dogs.
Wild dogs are now in uMkhuze which joins into iSimangaliso wetlands park open for animals to move more freely.
Really hope you make it back to enjoy the absolute joy of animals roaming freely.
