Giraffes!

We saw a couple of cars standing somewhere in the middle of nowhere- and being on a safari, you immediately wonder: what is it what they see? When we drove closer we didn't see anything, and then suddenly somewhere between the bushes we saw a giraffe!!
We were very lucky because right behind us the giraffe crossed the road and walked right next to us. We had a great view on this male giraffe! It was pretty exciting! Giraffes are just so beautiful! This one just wandered next to us for awhile- it's impossible I think to express what it is like to drive around and see all these beautiful animals walking around in their natural habitat!

Right before we excited the park we saw a whole group of giraffes. It's so funny- they are even too big to eat the leaves from the trees so they have to bow down. Aren't they amazing?


For me, giraffes are the most beautiful wild animals, next to zebra's! We were close to this animals! All the safari stories are apparently true- or we were just lucky:)
