African Wild-life (1)

giraffes

Helen finished her TB course on Friday, and to try and enjoy our last day in Windhoek before we headed back up north, we went to a swimming pool, with a crowd from AIM, in the Daan Viljoen game park on Saturday. A very relaxing day was had by all - except for the fact that a baboon stole the packet of chocolate chip cookies which we had brought with us. It came face to face with Helen who quickly debated whether to try and chase it away, until she realized the size of it.

Later, as we were leaving, we decided to do a quick drive around one of the routes (about 6km) and at one point we turned a corner and came across a herd of giraffe on the road ahead of us. We slowed the car down and drove slowly past them; giraffes on both sides of the car.
