Nobody likes a road block, sitting bumper to bumper behind a slow moving object or having to waste time in a stop go situation. That is unless you get all of these because of elephants in the Addo Elephant National Park. I had a meeting in Addo and decided to leave two hours early and swing through the park to visit my favorite trunked pachyderms. Entering the South Gate at Colchester, I decided to do one of the loops in the south section and encountered a whole herd ambling along in the road in front of me. Best of all, the guy in the car in front of me wasn’t one of those sighting hoggers that one often get and we took turns to be in front and take pictures, pulling over every few minutes to let the other one go in front again. An elephant road block is the best road block.
