On the run
We stayed for 10 nights in Marloth Park which butts onto Kruger National Park during our African trip. Marloth Park is a wildlife sanctuary and holiday town. It boasts four of the “Big Five” with the exception of elephant. Buffalo, rhino and lion are confined to Marloth's game reserve "Lionspruit"; the rest of the game such as kudu, zebra, giraffe, blue wildebeest, nyala, impala, warthog, ostrich and others aren't restricted by fences and roam freely between the units that are built on 3000 ha.
On the southern boundary of the Kruger National Park, Crocodile Bridge gate is 14km and Malelane gate 35km from Marloth Park.
We were driving out of the park one day when this giraffe came bounding out of the bushes on one side of the road and ran across the road in front of our car and into the bushes on the other side.
There is a funny story about possibly this giraffe. We were driving along one of the streets one day and out of the corner of my eye I spotted what I thought was a large wooden carving near a mailbox. I said to Peter that it was very lifelike and when we reversed to have a better look - it moved LOL.
