Where the Wild Things Are…..

TnCIS students on safari in South Africa
Today’s excursion included a 1-day safari to the Fairy Glenn Nature Reserve, located north of Cape Town. During the safari, students saw lions, buffalo, gazelle, elephants, rhinos, zebras among many other wild animals. After a delicious lunch, students hiked a nearby mountain and had a great view of the Fairy Glenn Dam and Reservoir. We then climbed down the opposite side of the dam and back to our jeeps. If that was not enough wild life for one day, we had to stop our bus on the way home to allow a troop of baboons to cross the highway. The Anthropology students were beside themselves to see primates in the wild! T. Bradley

The safari was amazing. I had so much fun there. I loved seeing the big 5 animals. I also learned a lot about the different animals and how they survive. The food they served us was the best breakfast and lunch I have had since I been in South Africa. I had a very good time.
The safari was so cool. I never thought in my life that I would ever be watching elephants play as I sat outside and drank my coffee. After the safari we went on a group hike. It was a great group experience for all of us to make it to the top of the mountain as a group. There was great teamwork and a great reward at the end with the beautiful group. This trip seems to just get better everyday!
