this irresistible combination of water and wildlife on twice-daily

"Although,
in retrospect, we had our fill of game viewing at Nxabega, my belief
is that visiting the African bush is not about spotting the so-called
Big Five, but simply about surrendering to the magic of being surrounded
by the bush, the animals, the birds. And listening to the quiet."
