hello everyone
missed you lot ... i really did ... had just the most fantastic holiday ever ... nearly got charged and killed by an elephant and nearly got eaten by a lion lol (im not joking) ... and a hippo didn't seem to happy with me either ... i have loads of stories to tell but am quite tired been on 12 hour flight and not slept all night got home about 3 hours ago
saw all of the big 5 animals ... they are called that because they are the 5 animal types that could kill you (didn't know that until guide told us ) ... water buffalo (very aggressive and will charge) elephant (can charge) leopard/lion (leopard not likely to be dangerous and most seen at night lions can be dangerous) hippo (can be very aggressive) and black/white rhino (white rhinos are ok and can be scared away black rhino will charge and run after you difficult to scare away ) ... the guide told us this click click noise to make if we saw one of the animals before he did (unlikely he was super cool) because he said all of the big five animals cant hear that noise well except the black rhino but he said the black rhino will know you're there before you do anyway he said there's nothing you can do about the black rhino (i think the black rhino is the one to be afraid of most lol)
we did have to put the click click noise to the test one time ... was on a hike with the guide in st lucia wetland park and lisa saw a leopard she did that click click noise and pointed and i saw it ... it was very rare to see it during the day it was just about 20 feet to the side of us walking thru the trees as if it never even knew we were there i was looking at it and then suddenly both lisa and i realized the guide hadn't heard the click click noise lisa did and the group were walking a head of us (was only 4 others in group) so lisa and i tried to do the click click noise louder and louder so that the guide would stop and hear lol it was actually kind of scary and exciting at the same time ... eventually the guide heard after we'd been making this noise and we just both pointed as the leopard walked thru and out of sight it was very cool
another time we saw a rhino ahead of us this was on the same walk but it was walking ahead of us and downwind so he couldn't smell us and we were walking after it and it kept walking ahead past next trees or next ridge ... i was thinking what if this is a black rhino should we be trying to catch up ... we didn't say anything because you're meant to keep quiet so not to scare it and it didn't know we were there ... anyway we caught up with it eventually and it kind of sniffed the air like it had caught a whiff of us but he didn't know where we were ... it was a white rhino and wow it was huge and powerful and amazing ... then he saw us and was about 50 feet away he started to come towards us ... the guide hadn't said anything he said before the hike that he might warn us to get behind a tree and if he does we should do it without asking why ... he had a gun and he was reaching for it so this made us slightly nervous rhino was still coming but not running looked like it might though ... anyway the guide picked up a big hunk of wood and threw it at the rhino ... and the rhino turned and run and the wood hit him on the backside lol it was quite impressive ... but made me wonder why he had the gun ... im glad he didn't have to fire the gun though
we also went to umfolozi park which is where we saw lions and have a few cool stories to tell about an encounter with a hippo while on horse back and also an elephant charging (the most scary and exciting thing i've ever felt) anyway i'll tell all those stories later if people want to know
the holiday was just great and the wedding was beautiful lucky enough it didn't rain because it was outside ... the hotel we stayed in for the wedding was just wonderful and really really cheap for a 5 star hotel ... i recommend the holiday to everyone
and yes we did have sex in africa ... its nice to be home ... i hope everyone is good here ... have i missed much ? ... i'll have a look about here either now or later
