Back to a Dodo XMAS

Am back in dodo land for a few days (holidays) before going back early Jan. So I got off my plane like 4 hours ago . Watched Alien v/s predator DVD . Ate some noodles , read the newspaper and now am blogging.

Dont no where i get the energy to do these things. But am planning to catch Father Xmas today read handed as he misses my house as he has been doing ever since I turned 11.

What has changed in the country since i left exactly 31 days ago ? ...the weather. Its really hot here in Port-Louis , even hotter than in Sandton , Jo'burg.

Must definitively go to the beach under these conditions.

Anyways MERRY XMAS to all of you people out there !!!!!!!!!!!

South African Safari

Yesterday I went on safari at the Lions Park which is very near to Lanseria Airport in South Africa. Was able to encounter animals that would be impossible to touch and see in good old Mauritius.



I saw giraffes , lynx , hyena , cheetah and the king of all animals the lion , loads and loads of them . I actually parked my car just next to lioness having its mouth full of the severed head of a cow. She was chewing on it as if it was a lollypop or something.



I also played with the lion cubs , adorable little lazy animals which didnt mind hundreds of tourist playing with them everyday.

Unfortunetly these animals are not really in the wild and would not be able to survive by themselves if they were let loose. Its a pity that because of mans wrong doings these majestic creatures now have to live in private farms and closed areas.
