Hey everyone.....
Sorry for not updating the Blog but you probably guessed, there was no connectivity with Bell....
We left Dan and Trudy's at 5:30am to catch our flight out of Wilson airport at 7:30am with Safari Link. We used the same cabbie that drove us the afternoon prior as he was kind enough to return Jasmina's Blackberry case....
The flight was short with 2 stops on the way. I had the first row seat in a cesna 206 single propeller. It was an adventure. The first touch down was West Savo air strip and we came upon a Cheetah chasing a Tomson Gazelle.... They split ways as we arrived to pick up one passenger. Without delay we were air born again. Dropped off another couple at East Savo and had a 15 hop to our destination.
We were greeted by 'Eric' our driver for the rest of the trip. He was driving a 6 passenger land cruiser with canvas top and no sides. We did a game drive on the way to camp that lasted almost 2 and a half hours. We saw Wilder beast, tones of birds, Pink Flamingo's, Zebra's, Masi Giraffe, and lots of Hippo's.
We arrived at camp at approx. 3:00pm and were greeted by John and Clair our hosts. We were walked to our tent (#5) and decided to just relax and take a nap before dinner. Oh, I forgot to mention the fist view of Mount Kilimenjaro....absolutely amazing! It is 19,340 feet above sea level and has a blanket of snow running down the tip right side. Just beautiful!
We had a good dinner and tucked in early to prep for our morning game drive and bush breakfast.
