It’s so exciting to be in South Africa! Yesterday, I visited Tembe Elephant National Park. The animals were all very active. I took lots of great photos. Last night was really fun. I went to an unusual restaurant and tried some local food. After dinner, I watched some traditional dancers. I took pictures of them, too.
