the lounge

my tent…

Today we experience Tarangire’s diversity on a morning game-viewing
drive, during which we’ll pause to enjoy a picnic breakfast in the
bush.
The variety of wildlife here is excellent, from lion, cheetah, and
buffalo to a wealth of birdlife. Elephant are plentiful here, traveling
in large herds that are not often seen elsewhere in Africa. Each of
our driver-guides has extensive knowledge of behavior of these great
animals.
We will return to our lodge in time for a relaxing lunch. In the
afternoon, we’ll have time to take an optional nature walk in the
Lake Burunge area. After, we enjoy dinner together at our camp.

Ok – Reality: (grin) which might even have been better.

We were up and about by 0530 this morning and basically on the road before 0700. The park doesn’t open till 0600 so there is about zero chance of crashing around in the dark. We did the usual mix up people and vehicles again which means new day, new friends, new driver.

Now I will stop the natter and present you with pictures……

all of which we saw within the first hour.

After which there were birds, more birds…..

Other animals and scenery

and finally – the Zebras
