For breakfast we had bacon, egg, a kind of sausage with a lot of marjoram, coffee, rooibos tea and “powdered juice”. Mel didn’t really like the sausage, but with a little ketchup it was quite bearable.<\/p>\n\n

We left Jeffrey’s Bay for Addo Park. There were no special incidents on the way. Mel only forced Andreas to stop or pull into a car park every 300m or so. She was thirsty for beer and wanted to buy some in a liquor store. Alcohol can generally only be bought in special shops and only at certain times – but because of Covid, these rules were tightened even more. After the third of these shops had also closed, we both realised that it was Sunday – so no beer for us.<\/p>\n\n

Around 12 noon we arrived at the park, filled out the forms, had our temperature taken and, as always, denied the question of whether we were carrying firearms. After we had paid the 700 Rand entrance fee, the gate opened for us and we could start our game drive.<\/p>\n\n
