Journey to South Africa - Kruger Park

Sunday - Sunday, March 8 - 15

We arrive at Kruger National Park  on Sunday afternoon. As we drive to Camp Satara, we begin looking for animals nonstop until we depart a week later. Kruger Park offers continuous opportunities to see animals in their natural habitat and every game ride gives us an opportunity to see something amazing. At night, millions of stars are visible and the Milky Way and the Southern Cross  are easy to spot. There simply is no end to the awe and wonder that comes with observing nature and animals.

This is our cottage in Kruger Park in Camp Satara. We also visited Camp Olifants and Camp Letaba. Each area offers scenic views in a peaceful setting along with overnight lodging. All campsites and rest areas located in Kruger Park are surrounded by a gate that protects areas from wild animals. Vehicles can only leave the campgrounds during designated hours.

Watch the video to get a quick look at the many animals we saw during our time at Kruger Park.   

After an eight hour drive from Kruger Park to the Johannesburg Airport, we board an 18 hour flight that eventually returns us to home sweet home. Weeks later, I occasionally find myself longing to see the brightly lit night skies, animals that roam freely and experience the peace that only only a trip into the heart of nature can provide.

Going to South Africa was a dream come true for me. Just another reminder to hold tight to your dreams and they will come true!
