Serengeti Safari

We took a puddle jumper to the south Serengeti to spend two days at Kusini Camp. This camp was right in the middle of the bush. This was by far our favorite part of the whole trip. We were truly immersed in the wild. 

We saw animals in the Serengeti not found in the crater, such as giraffe! We were also lucky enough to find two elusive animals that most people can't find- the leopard and cheetah! We saw a mom cheetah with three cubs chase and get a kill. The Circle of Life right?

Can you find him in here?

Leopard!

Water buffalo

Impala

Baby lion cubs 4-10 months old playing while the moms were out hunting

The whistling acacia trees are the giraffes favorite.

But the tree protects itself with thorns and ants that come out to bite when the tree is shaken. 

Shows how close we were. They were eyeing me up for lunch!

Do you see who's eyeing up this thomson gazelle? Back right is Mr. Cheetah!

Cheetah is the fastest mammal in the world.

Lunch! 

That was only the appetizer.

Cindy and Frank!

You gotta go, you gotta go! Too bad no lions were around.

Our favorite part was having Sundowners on top of the Kopje with the camp while watching the sunset. Followed by sitting around the bonfire for stargazing. An unforgettable experience.
