                                 After months of searching, I eventually saw the young cheetahs at
                                Rietvlei Nature Reserve. Night had fallen, but the cheetahs were well
                                lit, fortunately, by the spotlight of a game drive vehicle in front of us.
                                 We followed them for a good half an hour as they playfully walked
                                 down the road. I even witnessed them enthusiastically chasing an
                                                           ostrich.

                                Rietvlei Nature Reserve is a mere 12 minutes drive from my home in
                                the estate and I do encourage readers to go for a visit - you will not
                                                       be disappointed!
