A Loop around Southern Africa – Day 7: An elephant charges us in iSimangaliso

We woke up at our slightly dinghy guesthouse in Bergville at half past six. We had gone to sleep thinking that we would make an early start to visit the rock art under Giant’s Castle, but Joel woke up to a message from a guide he contacted the night before saying that they were closed – there had been a fire near Giant’s Castle last year and the tourist amenities had not reopened yet. Since we did not want to squander our time, we quickly figured out an alternative plan and set off to procure a junk food breakfast from a nearby gas station.
