We are at JAMALA. This is a lovely lodge. When we arrived there were elephants, Impala and waterbuck at the waterhole. Jim, Mary Ellen and Ken went out, the rest of us took our game drive watching the waterhole. A herd of buffalo came in and were happily drinking away and suddenly ran kicking up dust. Reminded me of the same situation we had at Narina. They were all looking in the same direction. Something spooked them but we did not see anything.

Great dinner and tomorrow we go looking for DOGS.

UPDATE TO JAMALA.
Game drives we saw lots of elephant, and general game. We waited for the wild dogs near their den and saw them through binoculars and heard them but they did not come down from the hill. Too thick for our vehicle to access the den site.

The second night lions were roaring, it sounded like right outside our rooms. So in the morning we went hunting for them. We found the female lion and followed her as she came down to our waterhole to drink, it was great seeing the lodge from the waterhole like the animals do. We never saw the male just his tracks. We also saw four rhino, elephant, zebra, giraffe and other game.

The highlight of JAMALA is the waterhole. Animals, particularly elephant, giraffe, zebra, kudu are frequent visitors. One day at lunch time a whole herd of elephant came and stayed for about 30 minutes. The little ones were totally emersed in the water. Two adolescents were pushing each other over in the water. Ken got a video. Remarkable activity. Never seen that much action from a vehicle. So very special. I stayed in twice to watch the waterhole activity.
