Hilary Duff and Matthew Koma are enjoying life as newlyweds! On Saturday, January 4, The Lizzie McGuire star, 32, shared a snap on Instagram from the couple’s honeymoon trip to Kruger National Park in South Africa.

Adding, “Already seen the big 5 and had so many snaps. Doesn’t get better than this …” According to worldwildlife.org, in Africa, the “Big 5” animals are the lion, rhinoceros, leopard, elephant and Cape buffalo.

Hilary also shared a series of videos and photos of all the animals she and Matthew have seen so far on their trip on her Instagram Stories. In one clip, the A Cinderella Story star shared a video of several elephants walking along the Sabie River. “This is just our back porch, there’s just like 30 elephants—we just count—in the back of our yard,” the actress explained in the clip. “Just crossing the river!”
