Mweya Lodge

Our afternoon activity was the Boat Cruise Safari, and boy were we blown away by all we saw!! We arrived at the boat and to our surprise, Harriet was our guide joined by Medress who was a bird pro 🎉 For 1.5 straight hours we saw a constant stream of animals including 20+ new varieties of birds. Medress and Harriet were so committed to helping us find as many animals as possible and identifying every single one by name for us to check off every single one in our book! The list included 50+ elephant, 100+ hippos, 10+ Nile Crocodiles, even a Monitor Lizard! We all loved every minute of it and the boys said “this was a VERY good Safari!” They appreciated the beauty, awe and wonder of it all together with us. It was so sweet seeing one another’s patience to explain the exact location of any animal spotted so we could enjoy it together!

We got back to the lodge and ran to put our swimsuits on to take a dip in the pool before sunset! Our friends/drivers/guides Sam and Narcis both shared they didn’t know how to swim so we rallied together to do a quick swim lesson. In less than an hour, they could swim from one side to the other, we were blown away! Sally, Lisa and I had fun racing and Sally (a former lifeguard) smoked us both :) We ended the night with dinner in our room and headed to bed for another early morning.Okumaya devam et
