Mornings in South Africa

I am not a morning person. Yet I had no trouble getting up at 5:30 in the morning because I knew I was going to be able to see the sun rise over the South African countryside from the back of a pick-up truck. I remember one of the first mornings we went out, a fog hung low over the grass and the sun was just breaking through the trees, then suddenly I saw a dozen zebras and a family of giraffes who were silhouetted against the sun. It was breath taking. It was an amazing experience and I can't wait to go back!
