Through the park and out on the water

There is Lake Edward, and then there is Lake George. Since I am currently in Queen Elizabeth Park, I really don’t think that the names need any further explanation.  We are staying at Mwenga Lodge

More from 28 March –

There were lions last night as well as other animals

This morning we left the lodge at 0630. It was starting to lighten up, but the sun had not cleared the horizon when we passed the crater lake.

The lions were not at the previous location. Instead they were making a pile ‘o beasts. Sleeping but occasionally rolling over or batting at each other.

Otherwise – we saw a nice collection of everyone else as well. River tomorrow….

There was a second pride on the road to the salt lake.

The one male stalked off. One of the  females was sitting at the side of the road. It was almost like she had shrugged her shoulders and decided that this pride was a pain to deal with and the guy had gone off in a huff.

      Thanks for taking the time to leave a note. List is going to be mostly without pix for exactly that reason. Enjoy the spinning!
