Saturday, November 6th

Today we left Mugwase right after breakfast and drove to the Lion Park.  Here we saw a colony of meerkats, 2 prides of lions one pride was of white lions and the other was the regular color.  We rode through the park in a caged jeep to protect us from the lions.  When Meghan began to talk to the lions one of them immediately got up and came directly over to the jeep and looked at us very closely.  She was only inches from us!  We also got to feed another giraffe and a herd of ostriches kibble.  The giraffe had an amazingly long purple tongue!  There was also a 2 day old baby giraffe that we were able to see.  She was abandoned by her mother right after she was born.  So the Park is now taking care of her and feeding her.  We also saw a few baby hyenas.  The best part was when we were in "Cub World".  We were able to enter an enclosure were there were 7 baby lions.  They ranged in age from 1-6 months old.  We got to pet them and take pictures with them!  After lunch we drove to the Jo'burg international airport and flew down to Capetown.
