Every year when the mangoes are ripe a family of wild elephants visit Mfuwe Lodge. Led by their matriarch Wonky Tusk they carefully make their way through the Lodge's reception area and onto the the grounds where the mango tree stands.
Did You Know... Slow motion filming has shown that lions, like all cats, have an elaborate way of drinking? They touch the tip of the tongue to the water’s surface, then draw it up rapidly to flick a small jet of liquid into the air. This is then very quickly caught in the mouth and swallowed.
True or False... Hippos eat roughly a fifth of their own body weight every night.

"The gateway to the park. More luxury camp than the bush camps until you go for a game drive. Then you realise exactly were you are. In one of the most beautiful places in Africa. You can be viewing game less than twelve hours from leaving Heathrow. What else can you ask for."

Mfuwe lodge in Zambia were perfect hosts sending us off each day and greeting us when we returned with hot wash clothes and wonderful meal. One of the many great surprises was the prepared meal on sight along the river to watch the elephants cross.

Just to let you know that we had an amazing time at the lodge. So many animals! And about one hour before leaving the elephants came walked through reception to eat the grass and ate my peanut butter and fruit (it was with my luggage in a cooler bag). That was quite funny. We also did the walking safari which was lovely.
