Road Trip Day 2: Breakfast at Buffelsdrift

Monday, June 28

Oudtshoorn, RSA

We woke up with the sun – and to hippos!  We had coffee in bed in the huge, fluffy, white robes.  We used the fun outdoor shower and then made our way to the main building for the buffet breakfast.  The hippos were at the corner of the watering hole closest to the restaurant – it was loads of fun to eat with the hippos.  And then elephants made an appearance too!  We walked around the whole camp before checking out and setting off on the rest of our drive to the Eastern Cape.  We LOVED the Buffelsdrift Game Lodge.
