African Safari Beautiful Vistas

In September and October, 2015, we took a 3 week African safari and saw marvelous views of big (and little) game, many national parks including: Serengeti, Masai Mara, Amboseli, Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Nakuru, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Olduvai (now Oldupai) Gorge.  Many gorgeous sunrises and sunsets and numerous sweeping vistas on the road and on the trails.  We visited various towns and cities including Nairobi, Karatu, Karen Area, Arusha and met a lot of hard working and friendly people.

We loved the African sunsets.  This one is over the Masai Mara in Kenya.

 We loved those flat topped acacia trees.

We also loved those huge trunked Baobab trees.

Those roads in the Masai Mara were so rough that all we could do was laugh about it.
