A walk on the wild side

Our Saturday in Potch was a little different than our usual routine. We started our day off by visiting Kohra Lion Farm. Here we were able to see the adult lions feeding on some "fresh meat" which was very interesting but a little tough of our stomachs. We went through seeing the stages of the lion lifespan and even had a chance to hold the lion cubs.




After our adventures at the Lion Farm we had the opportunity to do some "American" things such as shopping at the local mall and eating some delicious pizza! From here we attempted to see a rugby game in person, however time doesn't seem to be as valued here and they last minuted changed the start time so we showed up after the rugby game was finished.  Instead some of our local hosts took us to a local sports bar where we were able to see the very popular South African Springboks play and win in a championship Rugby game against Argentina.

Today was a very nice change of pace and a great chance to be able to experience how other South Africans live their daily lives.

Until tomorrow....
