Giraffe Ablaze: Video

I was going to say I had the day off today. Well in a way it felt like that, but actually I was doing more of what I don’t like than what I do like.

The morning started off horse riding which was actually for the Series we’re doing with Animal Planet. All good fun though. This was the part where I tell the story of my grandfather’s incident with the lion. Luckily I didn’t have to re-enact the whole thing with real lions.
The rest of my day was spent cooped up in the office! (The video clip is the one I shot yesterday.)

But it really isn’t that bad when I know I can get out at any time and I’m instantly in the wilds of Africa. Yes I know I’m spoilt.
At sunset I did just that for the last hour of the day and surprisingly there wasn’t a single animal on the airstrip, but they were on Banyini.
