Nico, here in New York we can see buffalo, elephants, and leopards anytime for free at the Bronx Zoo on Wednesdays. Kinda makes Singita at $1800/nt seem overpriced!
Ed I love you man but that was stupid... trust me to see these animals in their natural habitat is beats any zoo by miles and since I have been working in a zoo for quite some time i know best.
Here is another very good moment, third day in cape town we did a hike to the table mountain, it's quite a serious hike and one poor guy slipped and fell quite a bit, they had to air lift him and I took some pictures, hope the guy or woman was alright but it looked quite serious.
On the way we saw another snake, and a lot of other reptiles.
Table mountain hike nearly "killed" me, my calvs were nearly dead for a week, but it was brilliant, anybody who goes to cape town I can only recommend that trip.
