Wife and I just got back a few hours ago and can not sleep. Thought I would check the board. Had great 15 day trip involving northern circuit and Ruaha/Mikumi. Promise an report and photos shortly. Used Canon s-3 and was very pleased. Recent rains have extra vegetation for this time of year particularly in Mikumi where manager at Vuma Hills camp told us most for this time of year in some 40 yrs. Experienced some of the wildebeast migration in the western corridor and was truly humbled with number of animals. More later. Dick

glad to hear you had a great trip and looking foreward to hearing more. We're leaving for TZ on Sunday, Is the vegetation very high? we won't be in the western corridor until the 18th what do you think our chances are of seeing any of the migration?

Hi, Dick--
So here you are again! I've thoroughly enjoyed your reports through the years and am looking forward to reading all about your latest adventure.

keaho5, some areas the grasses were quite high while at other places the viewing was great. According to our guide, given the recent rains further south in the Serengeti wildebeast movement has a back and forth motion. Actually, we saw quite a large number of gnu moving south. So, who knows what will occur over the next couple of weeks. Realize this is not helping you much. However, even in areas without great numbers of wildebeast we still saw quite a variety of wildlife. Doubt if I get our report done before Sunday but let me finish mowing the lawn and pack and I will be glad to carry your bags for you!!

rsnyder, Thanks for replying, guess I'll be excited at anything I see right now I'm overexcited just thinking about it. Look foreward to reading your report when I get back.
and I guess mowing the lawn!!

Welcome back! Looking forward to your report and pics.

Welcome back, Dick. Sounds like another great trip. I'm eagerly anticipating the report and the photos but get some rest and take your time!

Welcome back! (Too bad, right? I hate for Africa trips to end.) I look forward to hearing about your trip and seeing your pictures.

Welcome back Dick! Can't wait to read another one of your wonderful trip reports!

Welcome home and looking forward to your report on the interesting destination you chose this time.

Karibu nyumbani!
