Jambo Everyone! Well we've made it at long last despite a last minute re-route a BA 777 landing on our runway and our pressurised water tank springing a leak 36 hours before departure - phew! We LOVE IT here! The sun is shining, the skies are blue with big fluffy white clouds and everyone on our trip is really friendly. The last week we've been into the Serengetti, and a private game park - Tanangire, and The Ngorongoro crater. We've got loads of pics to show you but we've only 14mins left in this internet cafe so promise to show them off when we've more time. We were really lucky with our game viewing, seeing all the big five - elephant, black rhino, lions, leopard and buffalo. Words can't describe how amazing it all is, we got so close to some animals and an early morning encounter with a leopard on a kill was really magical - our game driver said was really rare to see maybe he saw just once a year, we also saw a pride of 18 or so lions on a kill within 30 feet of us, this was also was very cool. Our next stop is Zanzibar where we stay in beach huts which we're looking forward to. Michael will go diving there and also wants to with a couple of the Aussie guys go deep sea fishing for Marlin. We have been told that internet is quite good there so will try to log on again in about 2/3 days. Bye, love to all.

Jambo Mama suzy & Mzne michael, Nataka ulete ndimi nne za kondoo. Sorry my swahili is a bit woolley so will continue in english. Great u having a wonderful time. We hear Ngorongoro Crater called 8th natural wonder of the world. good tip for you when you are tracking lions in the lake manyana region is to also look UP into the trees as apparently the lions thereabouts are great tree climbers! Bwana Michael please catch a marlin for me...I'd love to hear how you get on. Safari njema to you both. Love Mum & Dad.
