Day 2 - Kareiga Reserve
Great nights sleep and woke to a lovely sunny day, our breakfast was fab after which we set off for a quick stroll to the beach and local shops.
Our driver arrived at 11am, so we said our goodbyes to Christine and set off for the game reserve along the coast road from Port Elizabeth.
We have been given The "Crowned Eagle" Lodge and it certainly had the WOW factor! It is probably as big as our flat with the addition of a sun deck and plunge pool - amazing! We two v happy people!
Our first game drive was at 3.30 and Brendon, our ranger, was introduced and we set off with only one rule which was not to stand up! Felt very privileged to be his only guests this afternoon and we had the greatest luck to come across herd of elephants which included a newborn calf, apparently only a few hours old. What a great start to our safari! The end wasn't too shabby either as we stopped atop a hill for sundowner drinks and snacks! All we could have imagined, and more, this is an amazing place.
On our return to the lodge we were greeted by the girls from the lounge offering hot towels and drinks - perfect end to our first game drive. Once we had changed for dinner we met our other guests, Maria and Rory, a couple from Ireland who are on honeymoon. We all got on well so think we gonna have some laughs!
