Day 7 and 8
We went on a safari! There were giraffes, zebras, elephants and many other beautiful African animals. The lodge was a magnificent and peaceful place. We slept in tents with nice beds, lanterns, and a bathroom. All the accommodations were very nice. The atmosphere was so calming. With low lit lanterns, a campfire nearby and starts above.
We watched animals outside the tent in their natural element. Elephants were in plain sight drinking water at the pond. Monkeys ran around looking for food to eat. My dear friend Rodger had his keys stolen by a monkey. As he took a nap he started to hear his keys jingling. Then he realized the keys were outside the tent in easy access for the monkeys to grab. He went outside to see the monkey waving his keys at him. One of the employees went on the roof to chase the monkey. Eventually he got the key back. VERY FUNNY! J I did not see a lion on the safari; however, I was awakened by the roar of a lion. The entire safari was an amazing experience.
