Wow, what a month! There is never a dull moment here at Vuyatela. Click here to read more…

The above photos were taken from the Vuyatela Cam, hosted by Djuma Game Reserve - most of these images are recorded by Pippa.

It has been another busy month for Galago and its staff. We have said good-bye to more happy families that have graced our visitor's book with an endless array of compliments.
The Oger family wrote that they had a wonderful time with us and were able to see plenty of game. They said that their African experience lived up to their expectations and they loved every minute stating that they will definitely return again.
The Stroud and Hart family came to stay with us from the 27th-30th of September for a family reunion, which brought together three generations. They wrote that they enjoyed their time here doing what they loved with people that they love. They also said a huge thank you to the staff for making their holiday even more enjoyable. The highlight of their stay was not only witnessing a Cheetah take on a Hyena and win, but to also watch two leopard kills.
The Reed family, who stayed with us from the 30th September to the 2nd of October, wrote that the staff, were excellent and the food was the best they have had in a long time. The Game viewing was even better and they were thrilled to have seen five Rhinos in the open, and two Leopards out hunting stalking a Wild Cat needless to say the Wild Cat unfortunately came off worse. Accommodation was perfect and the plunge pool was, to put it lightly, refreshing! All in all they had a fantastic stay.
On the 14th of October the Kruger group returned to us after two years. We would like to welcome them back. They wrote that their stay was as enjoyable as the first time and the game viewing was once again wonderful. On their first drive, upon their arrival they saw a lioness with her young cubs, and a Leopard with her youngster. They also tracked two male lions, which were truly beautiful. They would like to say a big thank you to Rexon and William whose eyes did not miss a trick and they both had amazing knowledge of the Bush. They also wrote a poem for us:
"10 Pelle het hier gevestig
Want elmarie word sestig
Die braai vuur brand helder
Baie wyne word gekelder
Die samesyn kry spoed
Almal skep moed
Op prag diere getakteer
Ons vertrek bietjie hartseer
Maar baie donkbaar
Ons was hier voor gespaar"
Lastly this month but certainly not least, we had the Lowe family, who stayed from the 27th to the 30th of October. They wrote that they were blown over by the excellent game viewing and they managed to see a Leopard with a Hyena cub kill on their last drive; what a way to end. They also said a big thank you to the staff that was excellent. During their stay they also performed first aid on a baby squirrel that had fallen off the roof of their room. The mother never came to the rescue so the Lowe family did instead calling the little arrival Peanut. Peanut has gone home with them until he is old enough to come back to the bush so we look forward to seeing them all again in the near future.
From us at Galago we wish you all well and with spring in the air we look forward to the ever-coming months.
