Kilimanjaro: Grom & Team Start Their Safari at Lake Manyara
Posted by: Casey Grom
Categories: Expedition Dispatches Kilimanjaro
Today was our first day of safari and we visited the beautiful Lake Manyara. The lake is a brief stopping ground for many migratory animals and home to more than 300 different birds. The birds were nearly of every shape and color you could imagine.
Everyone enjoyed the day cruising around in our safari vehicles with cold beverages in hand while seeing the animals.
We manage to see a few wildebeest, zebras, Cape buffalo, lots of baboons, a few impalas, several elephants and even managed to get pretty close to a few lions. It was a nice introduction to the incredible diversity of wildlife that Africa has and the team is looking forward to seeing more tomorrow.
We wrapped up the evening with a wonderful meal at our new lodge, The Plantation Lodge. and even celebrated one of our teammates birthday with a cake and plenty of singing.

First - HAPPY BIRTHDAY SON!
What a Birthday Celebration. One we are sure you won’t forget!
A little easier cruising in a Safari vehicle then trekking the mountain?
Enjoy this leg of your incredible Honeymoon.
Love Meema and Dad xoxo
