Finally some time to post a new blog about my trip. I promised to continue with Lake Manyara on the savanna. Here you find zebra's, wildebeast (gnoes) and Giraffes.
It is such a great sight to see giraffes running. It's like a slowmotion. On the savanna 5 giraffes were
playing with each other. Just running around all the time. But also slamming with there necks. That's not a pretty site. Unfortunately I have no picture of that. They were too far away.
After The Manyare Lake National Park we visited the Ngorongoro krater. What an amazing place. It's so beautiful. When you arrive you have to drive on the rim to the lodge. We had a great lodge with an great vieuw. I will show you the vieuw later. Coming from a warm place driving up to the rim the weather starts to change. Fog is covering the way always in the morning. It's a beautiful sight.... well not much sight. Very mysterious.
The only road on the rim of the crater which goes all around. It is also the way to get to the serengeti.
And when you are in the crater this is what you see if you are lucky. The krater is awaking. It was very cloudy and suddenly the clouds burst open and sunrays were lighting the clouds and the crater. I just hold my breath.......it was soooo beautiful.
We arrived there very early in the morning and the first thing we saw were some lions who were heavy breathing because the just had their brackfast. It was still a bit dark.
Just like cats they look so cute but meanwhile ....
A few meters further from the road a young male was watching the 'valley' just in front of him. It was a dry river and a lot of growling was coming out of it. He didn't dare to go in so we think a older male was there with a prey. Jackals were watching the lions.
Ngorongoro Krater will be continued......
