July 22

Waking up early in the morning has been our new normal. Every day it get just a little easier. This morning we woke up at 5 and had breakfast at 5:30 and we were ready to go by 6. We started our day with a game drive mikumi park. We saw many of the same animals we’ve seen in other parks. Lions, hippos, gazelle, giraffe, and zebra. We learned a couple fun facts about the animals that we’ve never heard before. Like if a crocodile bites you you have to poke him in the eye to get him to let go. we learned how to tell the difference between make and female giraffes based on their horns. We drove around for four hours and then ended back at our campsite where we ate brunch. It was sausages and crepes and fruit. We pitched down our tents and loaded everything into the beast. The drive today was supposed to be six hours but I think it’s turning into eight. We’ve mostly been driving through small villages and towns but a little while ago we were stuck in some mountain traffic. All along the roads were baboons just hanging in the trees and on the ground. We were well entertained watching them. Once we get to our camp site we’ll set up dinner ouch the tents eat dinner and head to bed. That’s all.
