Who's Watching Who? (pictures added to blogs)

On Monday, July 9th, we went on our first of two safaris, by going to Ngorngoro Crater. We started out at 6:00 a.m. in the morning a 3+ hour drive. What a great safari. Too many pictures to post, but I will try pick a good variety. To say that we were up close and personal would be an understatement. We could have touched a lion and an elephant, along with seeing a lion take down a wilderbeast. David has a great video of it, hopefully we will be able to down load it when we get home -- along with others.

Mom, are we there yet?
Once a baby is 3 mos. old it rides on top.

Mom, quit moving I am trying to eat.

There are over 3,000 Baboons in Lake Manirya, alone.

Now that's better,
I too can see better.

Are you looking at me?

Are you looking at me?

Hey, I think someone's looking at us.

Yes, we're looking at you!

Three Maasai women.

Dave Russell, are you serious?

"More fans from the Lion King.
I got to get away from them."

 

Hee - hee - hee - hee - hee!

Are you looking at me?

Mom, you're good mom,
but not a very good pillow I keep sliding off .

Too close for comfort, not the lion -- but the vehicle.

What are all these people doing here?

Hey, would someone scratch my belly?

I got your tail, your it.
