Lion King
This morning we had a very early morning wake up call to go on our game drive. We ended up in a truck with the newbie's (a term they coined for Sue, Terry, Preetam and of course Tam and I since everyone else was coming from Serengeti) and since we knew them the best from the trip it made more fun. In addition Desta and one of the Canadian girls was …
