I love elephants and I was blessed out of my mind this past week when I was invited to my cousin John's lodge at Thornybush.

The first day we went on a game drive and we saw some lions and giraffe and plenty of buck and some wildebeest that they name ***Dagga Boys***

The next day I decided to chill on my own when the others went out for the drive and I had the best viewing ever.   Seven elephants came to the water -among them a teenager and a baby and they were all splashing each other in the water.   I really felt blessed having a perfect view of them so close to the patio.   They were there for just over half an hour.   I was fascinated and didn't have my phone nearby and there I was having a private and exclusive viewing.

The following day one came again and this time fully immersed himself in the water.  My cousin Flavia went closer to capture a photograph.

Except for one day - we saw one or more elephants at our water hole in front of our patio.    Blessed beyond what I can imagine.

Hope you enjoy the reflection photographs!!!
