Safely back from another few nights of camping in the Serengeti National Park, again camping without showers for 3 days and with wild animals wondering through the camp site, this time an elephant was feet from our tent. Sara survived quite well, but some others with her are not enjoying the camping - lol.
In the Serengeti, we saw a wildebest giving birth, lions courting, a black rhino which is super rare (only 25 in park and we saw 5, including a baby one!) It was awesome, our drivers name was Brown and he was super knowledgeable & every thing we wanted to see we got to see, which was awesome. The only things we were not actually close to were the flamingos, but since Sara has seen lots of them in Florida, she was not that upset. The only problem was her camera does not have a great zoom so her photos are not the greatest.
Last night we stayed at a site called "Snake Park" which is run by a South African couple who have started a snake bite clinic just outside the city of Arusha, to bring awareness to the local people about snakes & to provide free anti-venom for those who get bitten.
We're on our way to Dar, but will stop half way for the night, and then tomorrow night we will take the ferry from Dar to Zanzibar.
