African Safari: Day One

   Today, we packed up our bags and headed out for our first overnight trip.We were headed to the Safari. It seemed like a super long drive on the way there, but it was really only an hour or two. As we drove, I couldn't help but be surprised at how absolutely beautiful the world is.
      Ever since the Slave Lodge we have been making fun of Kelsie because the birds and squirrels really love her. In the Company Gardens, the animals came right up to her and were super friendly, which freaked her out. It wasn't pretty. She also seems to attract the dog at the Hostel very well. Well, the Safari just made her a target for some jokes because we kept saying how we would get to see all of the animals because Kelsie would attract them towards our vehicle.

I can show this one better with pictures than words. Only pictures can explain how truly beautiful Africa is:














    The drive in at sunset was so beautiful. I was in complete awe with how wonderful this planet is. After the safari, we ate supper together, then headed back to the lounge for some cards and fun. We laughed and played cards until the lounge closed, then headed back to our beautiful cabins.
     Of course, me being the aspiring photographer that I am, I took over 500 pictures in just this day of the safari. I can only wait to see what tomorrow brings.
