He was called back from retirement due to requests.He stripped a thistle stalk to show us how much moisture was inside. Then he ate it!We crossed potato fields to get to the 'jungle.'The able-bodies......and me. Sedan, Helicopter, Stretcher -- all terms used to describe this service."Watch your head!" I learned quickly to put my hood up and cover my ears (tree ants!)Gorilla trackers carry rifles and shoot onto the grass to scare away big game if necessary.1The money shot 🙂Me and my entourage. Good grief!🫣

    Gorilla Trekking (1 of 2)

    1 November 2024, Rwanda ⋅ ☁️ 54 °F

    What an amazing day! Started out with a short drive to Volcanoes National Park, where we met our guides and learned our trekking group. We then drove to the starting point of our trek, where we met our porters, and for me the guys that would carry my 'sedan.' (I thought there would be four of them, but there were eight! 😲) From here, we set out on the hike to find our designated gorilla family.Baca lagi
