Elephant family
One can never emphasise enough how amazing a park the Addo Elephant National Park is. I think a lot of people underestimate Addo but the beauty of that is that when they visit their expectations are completely blown away. I always say, and I do so because I believe its true, that Addo is the best place in the world to view wild African Elephants in their natural environment. Over the years they have become used to visitors' vehicles - not tame - which means that its often possible to have them walk closely past a vehicle giving visitors mind blowing sightings. Very much like this family that walked straight at and past us on a recent visit.
