Africa Day 5 Morning

We were happy that our lodge offered tea and coffee to go so that we could take cups with us on our 6:15 drive. This morning was the only day we had a meal served to us out in the open. Danson had brought folding chairs and a table and packed breakfasts (far too much food!). It was a beautiful morning and we loved eating out there in the wind. This was also the only time we needed to use the female urinary devices we had brought along. An interesting experience!

A note about photos: I am not a particularly good photographer and I took many pictures. Some may have been shared from Lucy or Barbara. I realize the quality is not the best.


Starlings we saw often; most pictures only showed black, but they were very colorful

Lions lazing in the morning

Impalas at sunrise

Iconic African tree at sunrise

Topi; we saw many many of these, also known as blue jean/yellow leg

Another lion, this one a young male

Another stream crossing

A kill with hyenas feasting; the vultures must wait their turn

The Kenya/Tanzania border; there is nothing distinctive to tell where you are

A cheetah!

The cheetah a bit clearer

Our only rhino on this trip; he was trucking across the land
