Had a great sleep and got up for an early morning drive. Got back to camp and had a great brunch, then set off for Savuti Public Campsite. This is the place where an elephant has destroyed a roof tent in the past... also Clint told us stories of the elephants putting their trunks through the window in the shower and drinking the water whilst you are in the shower... should be interesting.

We got there and put up camp overlooking the Savuti Channel (although it had not had water running through it for a few years I believe). The abultion block has been elephant proofed although Clint did say in the dry season the elephants can smell the water and when you leave the abultions through the gate there can be several around trying to get to the water!

We didn't have any incidcents though and went for an afternoon game drive. We had a fabulous drive - Martin heard impala snorting and Clint said it was an alarm call, we went to check it out and found a female leopard walking through the park - just stunning. We followed her for quite some time and got some fabulous photos.
