Today, we’re going to go on a real game drive – not like last week’s drive on a golf cart! After boarding our land rover at the Ivory Tree Lodge, we set out at dusk to search for game (game means wild animals).On our first evening game drive we had som spectacular elephant and white rhino spottings. But the real treat came later when our game driver brought us to three lionesses hunting zebra. Our guide said they were probably teenagers.

On those occasions I take in the local flavor by going to restaurants in historic districts. I should have known better, but the brochure for the historic market looked enticing. See for yourself…

Sounds like a perfect evening out right? Well the market was a disappointment. It was empty, under construction, smelly and small. Very underwhelming. I was determined to find that picturesque spot from the photo, but couldn’t find it anywhere. I was beginning to think that it didn’t exist.
