Singita Boulders Lodge, South Africa, Monday [Morning and Early Afternoon]

[makemyownway.livejournal.com]

The sun rose over the lodge in a stunning display of colors though without the musical accompaniment at way too early in the morning, but everyone was up anyway, right? It was time for the very first game drive around the park, and an early start was necessary to see the animals at the watering holes.

Fortunately in a lodge this nice, coffee was provided.

Good morning, Fandom! It's only 63 degrees (or 17, if you're a local) as you wake up, so bring a jacket along with your hat, camera, water and binoculars (and all the sunscreen--trust us) on the drive, but it'll warm up to a comfortable 79 (or26) by midafternoon. Ready to see some lions?

"How opportunistic of you," Jim laughed, shaking his head. "I bet that makes you friends in all the right places."

"How do you think I wound up here?" Atton said, snickering. "I made so many friends in right places, I had to go find another place to be. People are criminal."

"What an impressive resume you must have," joked Jim with another shake of his head. "You attempting to get yourself run out of another place or have you found your settling down?"

"Think I can convince someone to keep paying the rent here for me?" Atton asked.

Jim pretended to think about that for a few seconds. "I think you could, yeah. You'd have to really turn on the charm and maybe make some promises in return but anything's possible."
