Safari Shots: Ngorogoro Crater, Serengeti, Lake Manyara

Here are a couple of the close to 300 pictures we took on our Safari. We will write a proper update of the past couple of weeks, which has also included a presentation to 100 people in a village on how to run your own business but for now just enjoy the animals ! The four-days on safari flew by way to fast and some highlights included close calls with elephants and lions, camping in the middle of the Serengeti and having giraffes and zebras as visitors to our campsite

Looks like you saw it all. Not hard when you're on Safari in Tanzania, I guess!

Hi guys
I personally think the baboon looks like your father!
The pics are amazing - i love the little guy trying to eat your jeep - boy has he got it wrong - and no wonder he looks so thin!
Continue having fun

Love the Islanders (Mom and dad)

Haha... I think Jamie is more closely related to the banana monkey family. We also saw a monkey that looks EXACTLY like our finance professor.
