Motorhome Hire South Africa You and the Big 5
Mokhalaka Kakudi
The truth is that anyone can look a lion in the eye when a fence is between them. But it takes a man (or woman) with guts to actually go out there and look one in the eye. Most of you are probably saying hes crazy! Yes I am crazy; crazy about the Big 5&the real Big 5.
Have you ever imagined what it would be like to take a shower¬ in the comfort of your home though; surrounded by candles and ceramic tiles&Im talking about taking a shower underneath a mammoth (pun intended) elephant thats what the big 5 is about! By no means am I saying Ive done that before. Im merely saying that I wish I could get closer to an elephant or rhino, rather than standing from the comfort of some game lodges balcony; starring into the wild with binoculars, and then pointing out and screaming I see one, I see one! Wheres the joy in that?
I always wonder what it would be like to wake up in a campervan someplace in the middle of nowhere; you look outside the window and there is a lion circling the van, predatorily pondering whether to come in through the door, or just shred its way in. I dont know about me, but Im sure as daylight you wouldnt be that macho man you were back at the zoo; you wouldnt clown around and say you want some milk pussy cat? Or pretend to be Tweety ("I tawt I taw a puddy tat! ,"I did, I did taw a puddy tat!")
What Im saying is rather than sitting in a safari truck listening to Oom Piet [safari guide] Id like to get one of those campervans and then go on some expedition to find the mystique leopard. Apparently, as much as its one of the Big 5, theyre very anti-social and prefer hiding (wherever they hide). Well, I want to find one without Oom Piet and Ill even get closer to have a better look so I can be sure its not a cheetah, or worse some silly hyena.
