The staff at this camp were so awesome, great people, great vibes, they sent us off with a sing and dance.
We got really close to this big boy, who really didn’t like us being so close at all.
More Hippos!
Lazin’ Lions.
Monitor.
Some kind of strange fungal growth on this skull makes it look way more interesting!
My tent for the next 3 nights!
I love sunsets more than sunrises.
I woke up in the middle of the night to the sound of an animal that got louder and louder, and so clear and loud as it walked right past my tent. It wasn’t obvious to me what animal it was, but it sounded like heavy deep bassy breathing, and I thought it might have been a lion. This morning I was the first at breakfast in the big tent (as usual) and I was greeted by 2 of the staff who asked if I heard the lion last night! They said it was the big male, the king!
Today we made the trek to North Serengeti, another long hard day of bumpy AF driving. It’s almost like this trip is a test for me, a test in patience, in being calm in situations where I can’t have what I want when I want. Hearing some of the wild stories these older guys on our tour have to share over drinks at dinner has me thinking twice about judging people too early too.
