Steppes In Africa; A Disney-inspired Safari-R is for: Rest Stop with Regal Animals and the Rest of the Day, May 9, 2025 (9/7)

Yes, I would like a redo, and probably would have chosen Tanzania and Zanzibar!

We heard good things about the Okavango Delta too. We probably sold ourselves short by just staying in one place for 5 nights, but we had already travelled around so much (had already spent 10 days travelling around Vietnam and then a few days in Hong Kong), we were definitely in need of some 'downtime' by that point.
I get that too. If you'd already done a lot of moving around, resting in one place seems reasonable. Plus, you weren't feeling all that well, so it's probably a good thing you did.

My daughter is headed to Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia next month and she's so excited. It'll be fun to see her pix!

Next time I head to Africa (not if... when) I think I will do another area just for variety sake.
 
:rolleyes:

Animals? In Africa?

:lmao:
I don't know what she was thinking. Like did she do ANY research at all about where she was going and the circumstances? Fences are forbidden in the National Parks, sooooo.... :confused3
Appropriate. I'd never heard of them.
Nor had I! I thought that there were some on the Disney Safari, but I looked it up and apparently not
I can imagine. I mean... how often do you see lions in the wild????
Like...only in Africa!
Well, sure. Typical male. He made the cubs... rest is up to her.


:rolleyes1
Except she "made it" for hmmm <looks up lion gestation>... 4 months.

Tag, you're it!
Spider lizard, spider lizard. Does whatever a spider lizard does.*


*To the tune of spider pig... which is to the tune of Spiderman song from the cartoon series.
:lmao: I know exactly that reference!
Hiya, Hyrax!

Cute little thing. :)
They'd make a cute stuffed animal for a kid. I mean, not a real one, but like a build-a-bear deal.
Fancy schmancy! You guys are really not roughing it!
No, indeed! I mean, sure the dusty, bumpy truck was about the extent of "roughing it", but that wasn't bad at all!
Whoops!
Yeah, you don't want to be the main course.
No...

<stomp>
I can see why. I think Africa, I don't think of tortoises. :)
Not just sheer numbers of animals but a wonderful variety too.
At first glance, I thought they were monkeys!
HA! I can see that. I loved how they are all in a row.
OMG... Cuteness overload. I want one.
See?! So stinking cute!
Great shot!
:thumbsup2
Thanks. I'd seen a zillion zebras but this one was in the right light and gave a nice pose.
I've actually heard the term, but just assumed it was spelled "Must". Now I know. :)
It was fun to do more research on the phenomenon. I learned a lot about what I was seeing even after the fact.
Like this shot. Not one you usually see. Which makes it more interesting.
I liked it too because it really "tells a story".
Holy crap!!!!
One of my better shots. :D
You've been very lucky. Seeing cheetahs in the wild has been a bucket-list item of mine since I was a little kid.
Then I'd say it's definitely worth a trip for you.
I bet! How could you contain yourselves after all you'd seen that day!
It was definitely adventure-filled! So much to see there, and all so interesting!
I get that you don't want a mouse in your house, but... sheesh. Not really worthy of much of a fuss in a tent.
Correct!
I'm finding this out. Your TR sure has changed my mind about what Africa is like!
My work here is done! ;)
 
Nor had I! I thought that there were some on the Disney Safari, but I looked it up and apparently not
Vindicated!!
Like...only in Africa!

His work was done after a minute or so.


Probably less.

Yes!
I wonder how friendly they are? Or vicious?
No, indeed! I mean, sure the dusty, bumpy truck was about the extent of "roughing it", but that wasn't bad at all!
Was wondering about that.
No...

Frame worthy
