Relaxing in Kruger

A short, fifteen minute drive from home brings me to one of the gates of Kruger National Park, South Africa’s largest game reserve. Tourists visit the park from all over the world and I am blessed to live so close.

I’ve had two weeks off after our two month outreach to Uganda and Mozambique and one day I woke up early and went into the Park on my own. Driving my car with my window down and my music up is one of my favorite, most relaxing things to do. And when I go into the Park I can have alone time and yet see giraffes or elephants crossing the road or a lion in the distance. It’s pretty fantastic. The only downside is taking pictures of myself is a little weird and awkward, but somehow I managed.
