I just had the best day. When went into town this weekend to stay at the hostel, shower, etc. And a group of us girls decided to go on a day safari. We got picked up and driven to Tarangire National Park. When I went to Africa I didn't really think about where the stereotypical animals, such as elepahants, giraffes, and zebras would be. There definitely weren't any in the village or in town, but on the way to the National Park we did see a few giraffes. However, most of the animals live within the National Parks where they are safe.

We got kind of a late start, and therefore didn't see any of the big 5 cats. They come out most often in the early morning when the sun isn't too hot yet. However, we saw every other animal, and lots of- timons, pumbas, any everything in between. Enjoy the pics! Zebras have become my absolute favorite.
