Incredible trip! Tarangire and Ngorogoro

Hi! I haven't really had Internet access so I will try to fill you all in on the incredible experiences we have had so far! The first park we visited was Tarangire National Park. No sooner did we enter than we saw a pack of elephants off to our right. Little did we no we would be seeing elephants everywhere!!!!! So... Animals that we saw... Lions, cheetah, warthog, impala, giraffe, blackface monkeys, buffalo, wildebeest, zebra, tons of birds...cranks, vultures, eagles, starlings.... We even got to see a ton of vultures fighting over a kill!! We saw ostriches trying to attract each other! It is just so unbelievable that you have to stop and pinch yourself to remember that this is real...not Disneyland! So...our camp...Oliver's Camp...beautiful! The "tent" was fabulous with an amazing view and an outdoor shower! Beautiful sunset and sunrise. Little did we know that it wouldn't even come close to comparing to that Fly Camp the next night!!!! We camped out in a pup tent right in the middle of the savannah!!!! All night long you could hear elephant, hyena, lions, zebra... The shower was out in the open facing the savannah!!!!! It was truly beyond description! We also visited a village and primary school. We got to meet the children and hear all a bout their school. I already volunteered Human Rights Club to help! Today we visited the crater..you would never imagine all the animals we saw...baboons, lions, wildebeest, flamingo, hippos, rhino, zebra, hyena, jackal... They all live together so beautifully!!! We then visited the Massai Village. We got a welcome dance!! Then a tour of a village... The houses sure made of cow dung! So warm though!! All the people are very friendly and warm! It is everything I imagined and more! I'm out of Internet range for the next three days...off to the Serengeti tomorrow!!! I'll be in touch from Zanzibar!!!!! Take care!
