After two days in the Serengetti, we arrived at Simba A campsite. A beautiful grassy hill overlooking the Ngorogoro crater. A large bull elephant walked straight into the kitchen for a drink of water and walked through the campsite at dusk. The weather at night was cold and rainy and the wind blew hard. The morning was sunny and we met up with our compulsary guide, Athens, and began our decent into the crater. It was everything we imagined it to be and more! I felt like I was in a nature documentary!
Once we had our fill of the crater we began the journey home. Yes, after 7500km we have turned around and should be back in Joburg in two weeks time. We are having a rest in a hotel in the city of Arusha before we attempt the two day drive to Zambia. We also had to make sure that the landy was up for it as the roads are pretty shocking and the suspension seems to be acting up. She seems alright, so we leave tomorrow.
