Wednesday

We were up bright and early in the morning. Ate breakfast and took down our tents in the dark. We all had one goal in mind - get to the Masai Mara National Park as soon as possible, unpack at camp and head up to the Mara River to see some wildlife. We bounced along the roads at a fairly good speed. We reached camp by late morning and quickly took our things to our bandas (cabins)before jumping back on the truck and heading towards the river.

We were blessed with lions, cheetahs and all the grazing animals you could see, plus crocs and hippos! We stopped by to visit the baby that we had had in clinic in Talek that had been badly burned - and he was doing great! He had healed up well, except for one foot had not done well, and without several surgeries he probably be crippled, but we were glad he was doing as well as he was. We then headed slowly back to camp for a great warm supper and hot showers before falling into bed for the night.
