Majete Game Park

After church on Sunday, we drove about an hour to an enormous game park called Majete. We spent the night there, relaxed and explored God's creation. 

Here are some of the photos from Sunday evening and Monday morning:

On the way to Majete, Don and Leanne had both run out of phone minutes, so we stopped and bought more.

This was what we saw when we first arrived at our tents.

This is a view of my tent. It is a permanent tent with a solid foundation, running water and electricity.
It would be quite pleasant to stay here for a several days and nights.
Good for a spiritual retreat or just to catch up on some reading.

This family of zebras came to the watering hole shortly after the elephant left.

We saw many warthogs. Apparently, they are much more loved since the
release of the animated production of The Lion King.

This baboon slowly crossed the road in front of us, then sat and watched us drive by.

On the way home, we stopped at Dyratu Market. No matter how far out in the bush you go, you can see the amazing branding of Coca-Cola, the most recognized brand in the world.

Leanne buys fresh vegetables for dinner. I must say that the Green's hospitality
was way above and beyond what was necessary.
