Lockdown Day 813-17 June 2022
We decide to sleep in and wait for the sunrise to make the most of our beloved Kieliekrankie. The dunes go from dark to red to light and suddenly the sunrise with all its glory envelops our waterhole in all the hues of orange and red.
I notice the moon is still high in the sky and plan to take a panoramic photograph a little later, to get the sun, moon and Kieliekrankie all together in one panorama.
Our morning drive gives us a beautiful spotted eagle owl in a tree and two honey badgers playing their hearts out on the road before running off into the grass.
We decide to stay put late afternoon, and enjoy the warmer weather out on our balcony. After dinner we pack our crates, ready to be loaded tomorrow morning.
I take my tea out to the balcony around 19:30 and decide to first have a look what's happening at the waterhole. And there, just like that, a lioness appears with her two cubs. We notice only she drinks water before the cubs join her as she moves on.
What a sighting this was, our beloved Kieliekrankie gave us a lioness plus two cubs! As they move out of sight into the dark night, I look up at the amazing milky way and thank God for this special moment. As I wonder how I'm going to sleep tonight, I do know for sure He's really got this.
