Elephants at watering hole at our campsite.

Elephant we drove by.

We were driving along the road on our way back to the campsite the last night we were here. All the sudden we saw this huge bull elephant. We turned the car around and started driving alongside it. It was about 4 meters from the car. Then it suddenly turns and charges the car. It got about a meter away before we got the car in gear and took off. It caught us off guard and this was the only picture we were able to get. ...It was a little freaky having an elephant charge thats twice as big as the truck.
