Amboseli - Tsavo West

I woke up, board, still under the covers, I savor a good day already. Hot shower, then off, breakfast, we are ready to go. The day greeted us, with dawn light, the red sun rises in the branches of a albero.In the distance one can see, hidden from the high of their own color, a pride of lions, they are approaching. We stop. Then the intuition of our guides, leads us to spostaci a little 'out on the road. Here are just into our car. Eleven! stealthy step, some still with the blood of prey in the hairs of the coat. I am a young male and female, with a hint of a mane is growing. The top dog has a radio collar. The following 3 hyenas. They come very close to our jeep, slow down, control it, then stretch up, crossing the road, go towards the water, to drink, after the hearty meal! We leave the park, and take the road that will take us to Tsavo West. Once in the park welcomes us a landscape totally unexpected. Nestling among the hills, a vast expanse of black lava! Shetani Lava Flower! As far as the eye of lava! Landscape very beautiful and special.
We continue our safari, to get to the lodge for lunch. Ngulia The Lodge is located on a hill overlooking the park, and the view is spectacular, below us the arid and dry savannah.
In the afternoon, after lunch, we visit the Mzima Springs, a special place, where the water flows of lava from the earth, is clear and transparent, with reeds on its banks, hippos and crocodiles is waiting cool! On the way back, near a water source here is that there is an amazing cheetah drinking! Then, with his grace, he gets up, walking and goes away licking their chops. But the surprises are not over! Awaits us after dinner a true spectacle of nature! The leopard! Comes with plush step. See agile muscles that move under that shiny coat is really stunning! Salt on the tree and start eating! He sees his strength, yellow eyes that glow in the night! It's scary at the same time enchanting! I could be watching all night, for a moment think that would be enough to make a leap, and it would be where we are. For him, five feet, two at most are a joke to overcome. But it's just a thought for a moment, I'm too enchanted and happy to think about it! I spend all night watching it, just because it is he who leaves. So, I get up and go to sleep.
Africa Night

Tsavo West - Tsavo East

In the morning I wake up early to be sad! there are only 2 days, then also the safari ends! Ugh, I'm already thinking about the next! We get in the jeep, still sleepy. The temperature is decidedly different from that of the early days up north! They are no longer wrapped in the blanket. I just have a jacket. I feel the approach of the coast. As we leave the park, 4 lionesses greet us from the dry grass of the savannah. We arrive at the park Tsavo East and immediately crossed 2 giraffes. As we walk the road the landscape changes, now here is the red of the earth! We arrive at Mudanda Rock, a conformation of red rock formed millions of years ago.
We go down and climb on his back! From here we see the immense landscape of Tsavo! I want to stay here, you feel good, but we must move on. We meet a group of zebras, some little rest, lying on clay. Then here, on our way 4 elephants, two adults and two pups. They are beautiful, covered in mud, trying to imitate the great. They extend their proboscis, they try to drink. They are very beautiful but very funny! One of the elephants, however, does not like our arrival. Enlarge ears, raised his trunk, bellows! He takes a step toward us, shaking the huge head! Well, I guess it's better to leave!!
Towards evening, when we're returning to our camp, here are a couple of young cheetahs. Comfortably lying down. One is upside down! They get up, elegant, moving. Stretches, crossing the road before us and begin the ambush. They saw in the distance a group of gazelles. One crouches, the other moves. Begin to close down in the grass. Away, behold, it is a party. Mamma Mia, it's really fast! The gazelle runs in a zig-zig, the cheetah behind, trying to anticipate his moves, but nothing did. After a few minutes left the likely, perhaps, future prey. We meet again, licking ... maybe next time! Africa Night

Tsavo East - COAST

The next morning, I look around. Today is the last day. Here at Camp Ndololo, frankly, we'd be a couple of days! It 'really a beautiful field. Just re-ordered. The tents are spacious, a beautiful bed of roots. I go to breakfast, we are truly in savanna. The field is directly in the park. There are no fences. But what a show. And 'situated and perfectly integrated with nature! During breakfast, arrive at the pond near the restaurant, and in front of the tents, a herd of elephants. What colors! Because of park land, not gray like those of Amboseli and NAKURU, or Mara, but red, bright red brown. Beautiful. And with this show, I greet my last safari. We get in the jeep, and we prepare to end our trip. On the way back home, we encounter zebras, gazelles, giraffes. And the last, as if to greet us on the banks of the Galana River, a lioness lying comfortably!

Good morning Africa, there you are again here to give me emotions and life. The safari is over, I'm sorry, but I'm glad, I'm back to my home in Africa. I want to see her again, to reopen it. Kwaheri savannah soon. Because you know that I'll be back here soon!!
