Day 2 in Meru National Park & Day 3 of our Expedition
Time to wake up came far to early, it felt like i had just put my head on my pillow and it was time to wake up….the process of getting up is always tough but once i am up and about I am so glad that i did!!! A beautiful sunrise precipitated our early morning game drive and after tracking footprints for a while we came upon a lioness who was calling to members of her pride who seemed not to here her…after staying with her as she called and called to the others we set off to see what else we could find…presently we came upon a lovely spot on the Rujewero River …one of the 14th Rivers that Bisect this beautiful wilderness and we decided to have our breakfast here!! After story telling , much laughter and eating we packed up the remains of our breakfast and set off …lo and behold a huge herd of over 200 elephants!!!!! Bulls fighting each other for the chance to mate with a female and when mating happened the noise was stupendous!!! They all looked to be in excellent health and a good amount of babies were everywhere. I was delighted to see that after a year they are a little less skittish and perhaps with time they will be completely relaxed around GameDriving Vehicles. What a magical morning …the afternoon produced our lioness and other members of her pride known as Elsas pride!! They too looked robust and sleepy!! As the sun set on us the silhouette of the elephant passing by made us appreciate just what a wonderful day it has been!!!
Goodnight from Magical Meru and Elsa’s Kopje
