We achieved 2000 fans on our Facebook page a couple of days ago, and currently stand at 2018 fans … and getting to that amount of fans kind of made me sit down, and reflect on all the many things that have been going on here at the Vuyani Safari Lodge, the thousands of guests we have hosted here … it’s staggering what has been achieved here. The reserve is now one of the most vibrant wildlife sanctuaries in South Africa, with many of the world’s most endangered and rarest animals thriving and growing in number: Southern Ground Hornbills, wild dogs, White Rhinos, the super rare black Rhinos, elephants, cheetahs, and so many others … It’s a life’s worth of achievement, it certainly feels that way.

So when I looked at the photos of yesterday’s sightings, I had a big smile on my face. What we have done here might only be a drop in the ocean, or maybe it’s more than that, but all the years of hard work, worries, everything, it was worth it. We have done our bit to change the world, and we are not only proud of that, we are even more so immensely grateful for the many thousands of guests who have visited us over the years. It’s to them that we all, and also the reserve, owe everything. Some guests might not be aware of it, but they are the real heroes here.

Here some of the best photos taken yesterday. Greetings to all our fans! You are always welcome at the Vuyani Safari Lodge! 🙂
