This journey starts in Tanzania. Tanzania home of the Kilimanjaro Mountain, the Maasai people and the most beautiful nature and wildlife in the many beautiful wildlife parks.
We started at the Arusha national Park. In this park there are no elephants and not many 'big cats' so this is one of the reasons why they have guided walks in between the animals.
The park is not very big (137 km2) but has a great landscape, the beautiful mountain Meru, mountainforest and even a crater. You can also find swamps and alkaline Momela-lakes. When you enter the park you drive through a beautiful forest covered with moss. Black and white (long haired) Colobus Monkey's are hiding in the trees. There even is a small place they call little Seregeti. A flat area surrounded by forest. A great vieuw.
The crater area
We had a guided walk for 1,5 hour through giraffes, zebra's and buffelo's. Finally a woman. You don't see dat very often in Africa. It was really amazing I had never been so close to giraffes before. No car in between only the camera. The giraffes were very curious and not so afraid. Even some small baby giraffes where there. A great sight when you see them run away. If it is in slowmotion. I never have seen anything more beautiful then that. But there are buffelo's. One of the most dangereous animals of Africa because the attack without warning. So we kept them on a distance and did not disturb them. The lady was wearing a gun... just in case uhummm.
Walking between the giraffes... an amazing experience
