Serengeti National Park

The Serengeti was just amazing. It was my favorite park of the trip. The landscape was much more varied than I imagined. Parts of it felt reminiscent to the Great Plains, while other parts had rolling hills. We spent about two and a half days in the park and here are just a few of the photos we took:

Lake Manyara National Park

Lake Manyara National Park was our first stop. After arriving in Tanzania, we met up with our guide and the two couples who would be traveling with us. We reached our hotel and had lunch and a quick swimming break before going on our first safari.

Who could resist a swim in this pool?

In the late afternoon, we headed out to see the park. Here are a few of the highlights:













And we ended our first day with a beautiful sunset.

Tanzania

Doc and I recently went to Tanzania. We spent a week visiting national parks and seeing the wildlife. We saw everything we hoped to see -- and more! We will be posting some of our favorite photos from each park over the coming days.
