Safari Part 5: The drive from Kenya to Tanzania






We drove, and drove, and drove, and drove some more. When that was done we drove even more!

We left the Mara lodge around 7:15 am. We arrived at the campsite in the Serengeti around 3pm. It was a loooong drive. The border crossing was kind of cool, but we weren't allowed to take any pictures. We said our good-byes to Joshua the coolest guide ever, and met our new guide Prospa, and our cook Gamba. We were going to miss Joshua a lot. Prospa was kind of...well difficult. His knowledge of the area was amazing, and he knew every animal, he just wasn't really a people person.

When we arrived at the gates of the Serengeti park we were met by Vervet monkeys, I really liked the one who sat at the table just chilling. As we left the gate we drove past a puddle with the saddle billed stork starring at us as if to say "Who the fuck are you?"
