Overlanding Begins


Up early to travel to Arusha - our first day on the truck! Yep, it's hot, dirty and dusty but we had a great view sitting near the front. There's about 17 of us on the truck, a mixture of Brits, Aussies, Kiwis, Canadians, Yanks and a Chinese girl. Everyone very friendly so we're sure to have a good laugh.

Saw lots of Masaai on the way to Arusha, many had cute donkeys in tow and we spotted some wildlife from the truck, including giraffe and ostrich. The towns we travelled through were fascinating! It's hard to believe people live in such tiny tin shacks.

Snake Park


Arrived at Snake Park and set up the tent for the first time, which only took a few minutes. Had a wander around the Snake Park to check out the pythons and cobras, and said hello to a pool of crocs that were snoozing only yards from our tent! Enjoyed a nice barbie and a few more beers over a game of darts.
