May 21st
We spent another day in the Serengeti today. We started out with a game drive in the morning and we saw another cheetah and another leopard, along with a bunch of other animals. We had a scavenger hunt challenge to see which vehicle could find the most animals. The rare ones got more points. We saw a lot of birds and they are all so colorful and different. After lunch back at the lodge we packed up and drove to the western part of the Serengeti to the Mbalageti tented lodges. It is really awesome here. The lodges we stay in are half rock wall and half canvas tent. They say we can hear the animals at night. It is a little scary because we must be accomanied by a Masai man with a spear. We ate dinner on a cliff overlooking the sunset over the Serengeti. It was a truly amazing view. Tomorrow we go on a game drive in the morning and have the afternoon off. The rest will be a great time to relax between these long drives. We are all having an amazing experience here in Africa and are grateful for all the support back home. Asante sana!

ReplyDeleteI'm sure your trip is great and all that, but I got to go to Milwaukee this week! The view out of my window was a parking lot and some buildings. I participated in a great migration of cars each day that allowed me to view the locals communicating in some strange sign language. I know you wish you would have been here, but I took some pictures and will have more stories when you get home. Hehe, but really, great job on the reports and keep up the good work!
