Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Game Park

We just got back from a three day stay and amazing time amongst many many animals. The most amazing sight came just an hour after arriving. We stayed at Hilltop Camp which overlooks the park and we spotted some elephants in the riverbed below. We went on a hunt to get as close to the riverbed as possible so that we could get a better view. What we did not expect was the more than 100 elephants that surrounded our car as they passed through on the hill. We were charged only once as we got so close to a Mama Elephant and her baby. It was a scary and exciting experience. Here are some amazing photos of the land and animals that we were surrounded by. Enjoy...I know we did.
