This weekend, I was able to travel outside the city of Lusaka to head to Mukambi Safari Lodge. This four hour drive was completely worthwhile as I saw beautiful scenery, spent time with our group and relaxed. Once we arrived at the safari lodge, we were given many choices as to how to spend our time. Should I go fishing? Should I go on a land safari or a water safari? Well, I chose to do it all! The accommodations were wonderful and the safari guides did a phenomenal job sharing their knowledge about the animals we would soon see.
The photos that are posted on this blog don’t do justice for the beauty that I saw when I was out exploring. I felt like a was crossing sacred land, untouched by humans. I thought of my family and how I would go back to Buffalo to tell them about my adventures. I also wish that they could be here, so I could share everything I saw in sight. When I arrived at the safari lodge, I felt overwhelmed with excitement. This feeling felt like the excitement one would feel if they were about to ride a gigantic roller coaster. It was a great feeling! I did not know what to expect. Gradually, I learned to go with the flow, awaiting whatever event would come my way. While driving in an open Jeep-like vehicle, I saw hippos, elephants, Nile crocodiles near the Kafue River, and other animals that I have never seen before. I was in awe seeing such animals in their natural habitat. I had trouble coming to the realization that these animals all live under the same sun, moon and sky, sharing our world. This weekend, I spent a lot of peaceful time taking in the wonders of Africa.
