Day 9
We were given a demonstration about vehicle maintenance today. It was a really good demonstration but ultimately the parts described by Harvey are not fixable if they bust in the middle of the bush. I guess at least we’ll have an idea how to describe the problem. Basic maintenance and solutions are the order of the day. We headed out on a game drive in the evening and saw a nice range of animals from Impala, Zebra, Hippo, Crocodile and Elephant. We sat in the vehicle and let some pass us by. It was incredible just how quiet they can be as they pass by. You wouldn’t hear them trooping by you even though they weigh from 1 ton up to 5 tonne. Incredible!
Another beautiful sunset and we headed back to camp. We had some Baboons for visitors last night as we had our dinner. The food around is scarce at the moment and they hang around the college looking for opportunities to grab scraps and food from the kitchen area. They are incredibly human like and they learn very quickly how to get by electric fences, under gaps in doors and hand in rafters in the college. They are quite cheeky as well so we need to be careful as they aren’t as afraid of humans as they should be. We’re all gonna be in our uniforms tomorrow so that should be a good laugh in the morning!
