wen booked for the 4 of us (me, mum, dad & kuma) a tour in Aquila Safari. we got to reach there by 8am. which means we have to leave house by 6am because Aquila Safari is situated about 2 hours from wen's house. which means we have to wake up at 5am as there will be four of us sharing one bathroom!
early sun
the journey towards Aquila Safari is one of the best scenery i've ever seen. besides the view from table mountain of course ;) the whole 2 hours drive around mountains and hills, and the view is FANTASTIC!!!!!!!
reminds me of the show the sound of music... the hills are alive, with the sound of music

GIRAFFE!
they even stopped the vehicle near the giraffe, and we were allowed to come out of the vehicle and have a snack!
and it's really really windy there!
african elephant
african elephants are unique as you can only have them in africa. and they are called african elephants because their ears are in the shape of the africa continent! cute right?
springboks
the lions are somewhere after this road
and lastly, the leopards.
too bad the leopards are caged as they are having a breeding programme for them. the rest of the animals are not caged! they are just walk freely around our vehicle!
views in the safari
the clouds look really fake!
cute plant
on the way back, i enjoy the scenery again. i know i wont be coming back again soon. =(
random wineyard along the way
