Our driver was able to take us very close to the elephants. He assured us this was perfectly safe - we were not so sure. |

The view from inside our vehicles. Each of the vehicles had a roof that was raised for animal viewing. Mt. Kiliminjaro can be seen in the distance. |

We went on a three-mile hike in Amboseli National Park. This Masai man was our guide. We were somewhat reticent to be out in the open without the protection of a vehicle, but he assured us that none of his guests had ever been attacked. |

Masai dancers. |
