Cape Town to Nairobi Day 38 Serengetti National Park, Tanzania



Today was all about game drives! We hit the road at 6am, coming back to camp around 10 for brunch, then a full days game drive through the park. Since we saw absolutely everything the first day we had high expectations the second day and I cant say we were disappointed! Another great day of spotting animals in surreal numbers!

We worked our way out of the park to our camp at the top edge of the Norongoro Crater. Again all the tents were set up for us and supper was cooking. This is the life!! We had a bull elephant walking around the campground and an armed guard keeping him away from our bathrooms so he wouldn’t drink all the water. For the last couple of weeks water tanks on the roofs of the bathrooms supplied rainwater to gravity fed showers and “toilets”.












We got to camp after dark but thankfully we were arriving at a camp that was already set up for us and they were cooking us supper! What a great day!!
