dream come true

our final destination was murchison falls where i fulfilled my life-long dream of seeing giraffes in their natural habitat. i could go on about our experience there but realize i've already written up a storm. so i will keep this entry short. this trips highlights included:

- blue-balled baboons (seriously they were bright turquoise!)
- herds of elephants & nearly being charged by the alpha male(largest elephant i've ever seen!)
- getting withing 10ft and the huge gentle giants (giraffes) & a beautiful sunset among over thirty giraffes
- eating all our meals with our hands on the floor african style
- seeing the mighty nile push through the narrow passage at murchison falls (most powerful river flow in all of africa!)
- and having a hippo the size of our van grazing outside my screen door our first night there!

we didn't see any lions this time round but the trip was unbelievable regardless. & once again words cannot describe what we saw or did, nor can my pictures capture the beauty that was before me. the wildlife is something every person must see for themselves.

murchison = dream come true!

well, thanks for listening to me re-live my experience through the blog. till next time,
