A lunch stop without lunch!

We drove past the park’s airstrip where a private aircraft had just landed. Wealthy tourists spend a lot of money to see the wildlife this way.

We stopped for a 30-minute lunch stop at a waterfall. The catch was that Omondi hadn’t arranged a packed lunch for us or told us that we would need to bring our own! Luckily, we had some fruit and snacks with us. We walked to the waterfall and had a chat to a busload of schoolchildren who were visiting.

After our break, we continued with our game drive. We saw lots of giraffes, zebras, impalas, a pair of waterbuck, and baboons with their babies, all in the same place. Omondi was surprised that we wanted to stop and take photos. I think he thought we wouldn’t want to as we had seen them all before. We tried to explain that it was a different experience, and therefore a different photo, to see them all together. Throughout the drive, we missed some good shots because Omondi didn’t stop at all, or didn’t stop completely, or didn’t stop for long enough! It was really frustrating! It’s not a problem we’ve had with any other guide in any other park.Baca selengkapnya
