Masai Mara

Masai Mara is the best known of the Kenya Game Reserves/National Parks.  It lies along the southwest border with Tanzania, bisected by the Mara River (one of the main crossings of the Wildebeest & Zebras during their annual migration from the Serengeti).  The reserve is approximately 2700 sq. km. (690 sq. miles) and is home to a large variety of wild animals.  Our group had its first game drive on Monday afternoon, seeing many animals and hundreds and hundreds of Wildebeest and Zebras.  Tuesday morning was a magnificent pre-dawn hot air balloon ride and champagne breakfast, followed by an afternoon game drive.  This morning was our last game drive at the “Mara.”  This morning I got my wish.  Hope you enjoy the pictures below, especially the last one.

Tomorrow morning 11 of us fly to Tanzania for the remaining four days.  I’ve enjoyed the trip so far but am anxious to get home.
