Pictures from Mikumi National Park

So the weekend before last we went on safari in Mikumi National Park. This is a small selection of what I saw. My friend Mike took all these photos (fifteen minutes in it started to feel a little stupid taking photos when Mike was just leaning over my shoulder taking much better ones). I might photobucket the other photos later because Mike took a lot of great photos...


The guide said we weren't allowed off the bus to see if he wanted some friends in the watering hole. Maybe that had to do with the lions though.


The classic no-hand water carrying.

Dinner at Mikumi.



This isn't even the coolest twiga we saw...I'm just saying.



Mike says I should start a blog called 'Things I do in my Obama T-shirt.' It really was the only clean thing I had though.

Uhg this is not the photo I wanted gosh darn it. Oh well...slightly out of focus.






This place is a total snooze fest.

    Dearest Cousin,
    Do you live in Morogoro-meme? Also, I'm thinking about spending sometime in Tanzania next year. What would happen if I just showed up in July? Do you know any crazy-cheap places to stay? Seriously, I have no standard of living. I will/have stayed in brothels.

    And good luck with the food! Here's it's all rice, oil, fish and the occasional much-coveted intestine. I am not thin :-)

    Much love,
    Ellen

    PS How did you end up in English/German/Arab territory? We're hurtin for French speakers in this part of the world. Hell, they had to teach it to me.

    Lot's of love from the frozen north,
