Meeting the cast of the Lion King

A few med students and I returned today from a two day self-drive safari.

The savannah is majestic. 300+ km2 of preserved nature and wildlife. It was a pleasure to see an ecosystem of animals in their natural element, not spirits broken behind bars. Looking out on God’s creation, it is hard not to feel a sense of wonder.

I absolutely recommend self-driving over a packaged tour - more flexibility to spend your time as you see fit. Two days in the park was sufficient to see everything. Satara, in particular, had excellent facilities and lodging.
