Masai Mara National Park

Day 9 and 10 - We leave Thomson's Falls and we make a short game drive along the borders of the well known Nakuru Lake. We enjoy the wonderful view of the hundred thousands flamingos. We go to a point of view on a top of a mountain. On our way to that top, we have some adventures with buffalos, rhinos (we meet both black and white rhinos!) and we see only a few of the more than 450 different kind of birds.
We need the rest of our day to drive to the Masai Mara National Park. We have some flat tires, which takes some extra time. Our stay in the Masai Mara National Park is in tents with own restroom and shower.
The second day in this beautiful park is filled with two game drives and we visit a tribe village (See ANIMALS for more information about the lions we met and other animals).
We see a lot of animals: cheetah, elephant, zebra, eagle, wildebeast and... lions!
During the second night, some of our party go to a Masai Mara bar in the bush and have a nice evening with some people of the Masai Mara tribe.
