This is the path to our room and
we always had splendid company on our walks to
our meals and our drives.
Mommy and
baby
We almost wanted to bring him
(her?) home with us.
Our path was lined with exotic
plants - this is a Candelabra tree -- for obvious
reasons. Much of the vegetation was not from
Africa.
The lodge was certainly nice. The pool
below was used by lots of people, but OAT did not
recommend that we bring our swim suits since it
would be winter here in Africa. Some winter!
Above is the splendid view from
our lodge, and below is the plush grounds
surrounding it.
There was a barbecue here one
evening for extra money that nobody from our
group attended.
But let's get back to game
viewing. Our group is convening for an afternoon
drive.
An interesting ostrich and zebra
combination.
And here, Elaine got a
combination of an ostrich and a dust devil way in
the distance.
A Gray Crowned Crane with it's
beautiful yellow plumage.
But, giraffes stole the show on
this drive. This splendid creature was just dying
to get on this web site. He also managed to get
his little kid into the act.
And gosh, could they ever run!
Why did the giraffe cross the
road?
To see the distant wildebeests
slowly walking to their next migration,of course.
And our next migration will be
to the Masai
Villiage and school. You must see Susan and
her wonderful art work. Visit the page when it is
highlighted. Or go to the Table
