Animals! (Ethan Adventures)

We were very lucky and saw a TON of animals over the 3 days. We took a game drive through the Nile Delta area of the park and spotted elephants, gazelle, buffalo, giraffe, and many DLA (deer-like animals.) Our driver even went barreling off road, (waaay off road), to chase down a lion family in the tall grass. It was awesome! The next day we took a boat ride up the Victoria Nile to the base of Murchison Falls. We saw more elephants, tons of lizards and crocs, and a million hippos! The hippos were my favorite. It was neat to watch them interact in their families, and how the parents are so protective of their children. Hippos look like the laziest animals ever...floppin' about and lounging on each other. They don't intermix families. I learned that Hippos always stay in their own "clan." The last day, we traveled to the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary in Nakitoma, and tracked white rhinos! They were amazing! It was so special to be able to get so close to them. Beautiful!
