Rhino Encounter & Bushman Paintings

Today John, one of the Alabama guys, and I woke up this morning at 6 to go with the tracker students for the day, but when i got there Porkie, the master tracker who teaches the students, said that I would have to go tomorrow because his car is broken or something and he needs to get it fixed before we can go with them... I didnt really understand what he was saying, but i just nodded my head and agreed... The rest of the group was supposed to go on a river walk to count the vervet monkeys, but I didn't really feel like doing that, so I convinced John to go on a walk with me instead. It ended up being the coolest walk yet! We ran smack into a group of 5 White Rhino, and since our scent was blowing right towards their direction, I told John we should just keep walking, and eventually walk back behind them. So we walked for a while, and then started coming back into rhino country, and all the sudden the break of a twig from one of us stepping on the ground startled them, and they ran for a second and then stopped and looked right at us. I told john not to move, because they have horrible eyesight. We started backing up slowly, because they were only like 10 yards away from us. We moved back a bit, and watched them for like 20 minutes, and they weren't moving a bit. Then all the sudden two of them came charging right at us, but I had a good escape route already planned through the dried up river, so we were safe. Got the heart beating a bit, but it was awesome! Once we got back from our rhino adventure, we had a bit of lunch, and then headed to the cave mountain to see the bushman paintings inside this hidden cave. On the way up the mountain we stopped to hike up this cliff side to see if there was an eagles nest on the top of the cliff. It was a fun climb, and a great view once we made it to the top. We continued up the mountain, and unfortunately had a flat tire, which set us back a bit, but then we eventually made it to the mountain. The cave was awesome…and saw these paintings that were done 100,000 years ago!
