Since we were with a group of rabid (sorry) avid photographers we then spent the day driving around looking for all kinds of stuff. 
Back home for 7pm, bucket shower (3 minutes of water between two people), dinner at 8pm and bed at 10:30pm. 

I was awake almost every morning at 3am since either a buffalo, elephant or zebra was right outside the tent eating.

It was scenes like this, that happened several times a day, that made for a fabulous trip.
