Mondays are the days that the Nairobi Nairobi National Park Africa . My favorite one was my first because it was in the world famous Masai Mara & I saw several male lions, 3 cheetahs, elephant, giraffe, zebra, ostrich…pretty much everything but the rhino. Plus we had the most beautiful sunset I've ever seen. This time around, however, was extra special. We witnessed a once in a lifetime event, 2 female lions right after a kill. They were laying under a palm tree & there were about 4 safari vans parked right in front of them watching national geographic unfold right before their eyes; It was probably the coolest thing I've ever seen! But we weren't quite satisfied just yet, there's something about a safari not being complete until you see a male lion. As we were driving quite fast down the dirt road we came to an abrupt stop because 2 males lions crossed right in front of us & walked into the brush on the other side of the road. One looked like it was probably the father & the other the younger. They were huge! About an hour later on our way back down the same path we saw the father laying literally about 6 ft. off the road. We parked in front of him & marveled at his beauty. What a day it was!
