Imagine riding through some of the most beautiful landscape in the world, standing and looking out the pop-up roof of a land cruiser, tent camping with the sounds of the wildebeest migrating less than 100 yards away, eating delicious food served on Masai colored table clothes, enjoying beautiful weather, and traveling with a very fun group who taught us how to pronounce G"eye"raffe, and Zebra like Debra, and seeing magnificent animals up close and in their natural environment....that is what our Safari experience was like. We visited Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, and the Serengeti all within 3-5 hours of Arusha where we have been volunteering. We saw lions, leopards, cheetahs, rthinos, hippos, zebras, water buffalo, wart hogs, hyenas, impalas, gazelles, elephants, giraffes and many different species of birds. We both felt that this was a very special place with its natural beauty, animals co-existing side by side, humans observing but not disturbing their environment, and a true jewel of Africa. We have included some pictures of the trip. Our companions were co-volunteers from England - Phil, Lillie, Becka and Mike as well as Chewie our guide and Kinili our fabulous cook.
