Hi everyone!
Just returned yesterday from an incredible safari in western Uganda. The safari lasted 4 days, 3 nights, and we saw so many animals. The first day we went to a rhinoceros sanctuary where we got up close and personal with 5 white rhinos. The next day we actually entered the park and went on a forest walk, where we did not see any chimpanzees unfortunately, but we heard quite a few. After that we crossed the Nile by ferry to get to the northern side of the park where most of the animals are. We went on a game trek that afternoon and saw waterbuck, warthogs, baboons, buffalo, giraffes, elephants, and a lion. We camped that night in the bush, which was pretty cool because we could hear the animals from our campsite. The third day we woke up at 5:30 to do a very early morning game drive, where we saw more giraffes, warthogs, elephants, and waterbuck, but we also saw a leopard, which is very rare. We then traveled back through the park to the river, where we boarded a boat for a trip down the river to Murchison Falls. During the boat trip we saw more elephants, hippos, and crocodiles. Once we got to the waterfall we hiked to the top of it where we were camping for the night. The views of the falls were breathtaking and it was really incredible camping so near to them for the night. The next morning we drove back out of the park and returned home. It was a very successful safari, and we had a great group of people with us of various nationalities, so it was a lot of fun. Hope you enjoy the pictures! I will be going rafting on the Nile on Thursday with some of the girls I met on the safari, so wish me luck…it should be pretty amazing.
