Well, the memories in the head are the best. We saw all the big cats here:

They try to rehabilitate cheetahs to release them back in to private reserves but with limited success it seems. But if you want to see cheetahs up close, that aren't completely tame, it is the place to go. Beautiful lodge too. We didn't see any lions in Etosha but did spot a black rhino!
Because we were there in the middle of the short rains, the game wasn't particularly near water holes as there was water lying on the roads at times!
It is beautiful. And thanks for your nice comments.
