I love this picture. The rhino has a ton of little blue birds catching a ride on his back, and there's a lone giraffe walking in the background. It almost didn't seem real!
Lake Nakuru National Park is one of the few places where you can see both white and black rhinos. Here is a white Rhino. It has a wide nose/mouth. (can't really tell from the picture) Amazing beasts...walking around, grazing on grass, with huge legs and bodies, wow!
A close-up of one of the many baby animals we saw. Zebras are Riley's favorites! We saw lots of Zebras! (pronounced zeh-brah in Kenya...and in England come to think about it! But don't let Riley hear you pronounce it that way! He gets a little defensive. "It's zee-bra", he says!
At Baboon Cliffs overlooking the Lake and the Park.
Another picture of a giraffe. This particular one is a Rothschild giraffe. It doesn't have markings on its lower legs...making it look like it's got socks on!
One of my favorite pictures of Riley...here looking at monkeys. Love his smile!
The famed flamingos at Lake Nakuru National Park.
On an early morning game drive, seeing these giraffes through the misty dew was beautiful! We also saw a lioness "watching" them as well...(she didn't turn out in the picture!) You can tell that the giraffes can sense the lioness is close by. They're all looking in the same direction, and being very cautious. Well, wouldn't you be, too?!
From the veranda of the game lodge, with a masai warrior standing guard, keeping wildlife, esp. baboons, away from the food! What a magnificent view! In the background you can see (left to right) a cape buffalo, impala/gazelle, and baboons.
Riley and Sophie in front of statues in a hallway of the lodge. Cute kids.
Waiting in the van while Grandpa registered us at the Park. Can't tell who's more fascinated, the baboons at the kids, or the kids at the baboons...which tried to climb into the van through the window! That really got a scream from the kids! They loved it!
