Africa Safari!






Dan and I went to Africa, Uganda to be specific, to visit my parents on their mission. The first couple of days were spent on safari which was AMAZING. We were able to see so many animals and from as little as 10 ft away. I was in complete AWE most of the time. In the duration of the Safari we were able to see;
Giraffes walk across the street in front of us,
A really old Elephant right off the road eating and walked past our car (it looked like it was about to die it was so old,
Hippos in the lake,
Tons of Water Buffalo, some kind of dear and Wart Hogs,

and we were even lucky enough to get to see two Lions one male and one female.This is an actual lived in village on the reserve.
I have concluded that the sky is actually bigger in Africa
This is a termite hill, no joke it was taller than me, but it was raining so I didnt get a picture with it.






I thought this was a Komono Dragon but its actually a Monitor Lizard, I still don't see the difference.
