We took a nice breakfast at Mugg & Beans in Satara Rest camp but we left later than usual. The restaurant only opened at 7:00AM, upon our departure we headed West as there were many lions that were spotted in that area. We did a 30KM detour and saw many animals but nothing like last night. No lions, leopards or cheetahs.
We encountered many elephants upon our departure from the hide
. We had never seen so many elephants at the same time and they were all around us. A few young males were looking for a fight. getting a little too close for comfort.
Luckily, Lucie and I picked up a trick on our night drive. We clapped our hands several times really loudly to scare it away and it was instant. Thank god!
