Tourists Without Borders



I visited the Maasai Mara game park in Southwestern Kenya with Rebecca last weekend. Maasai Mara is famous for the diversity of wildlife in the park, as well as the yearly wildebeest migration, where 1.6 million beasts trudge back and forth from Serengeti to Maasai Mara and back again. The wildebeests come to the Mara in July and August, so we missed the spectacle. However, we saw some unforgettable sights. This bunch of zebra crossed the Mara river right in front of a hungry croc. There was also a lioness waiting on the far shore! Also, two cheetahs jumped onto our safari-mobile. This pic isn't even zoom! She was that close....
