We were so blessed by a weekend away into the bush at Mabula. It was so so good just to spend time away and alone with my husband. We enjoyed the peacefullnes so much and felt totally rewined when we came back.
We arrived in Load shedding time, was complete darkness on friday night. But after we got to unpack and get the fire started in the awesome place, we braaied some braai broodtjies and wors.
The next morning we awoke with this amazing view.
There are animals all around you. Squirrels, birds etc
We got ready and went to explore the place a bit. Awesome place for kiddies and family as well.
Here was the view by our private pool in our game camp.
Just when we arrived back at the lodge, it started raining. And we made a brunch had some lovely food. We then indulges in some bird watching and blankets.
These are Natal Francolin's
After a lovely nap. We started with our food late lunch time to prevent being stick with load shedding again. Started with a good red wine that was perfect and complimenting the weather. And then of course Roosterkoek with our braai.
Our fire we started.
We cuddled inside the warm lodge. And looked at our fire through the glass. Shame my poor hubby was braaing in the rain. He seemed to enjoy it a lot.
The next mroning we had some biscuits and coffee. Sad to go home today. We decided to go walk through the place again. We dis walk through a reptile place, but never took photos, waa abit creepy and old.
Afterwards we enjoyed a cuppa hot choc at the main lodge.
Strangest thing is when we had to start packing and go home the sun came out and was the perfect weather!!!
Just before packing we enjoyed a glass of whiskey enjoying our scenery for the last time outside before going home. I also made some jaffles for lunch and could peacefully sit outside in the warm sun.
Just leaving the place we saw this littlw baby hornbill, very freindly and not scared at all.
These were some of the wild we got to spot in these 2 and a half days.
We were superly blessed and so thankful for this weekend away. We are so thankfull for the people that gave us this weekend.
Had a lovely time spending time with one another and learning new things everyday! I love learning.
Love T xx
