Tanzania Lake Manyara

Lake Manyara, Tanzania – 2006. After a week touring Kenya we took a bus from Nairobi to Arusha where we met up with our Tanzanian driver/Guide. After experiencing the abysmal roads in Kenya, we were very pleased with the condition of the roads in Tanzania. We did an afternoon and morning drive through Lake Manyara National Park, spending the night at Lake Manyara Wildlife Lodge.

Of all the different places that we saw hippos in Kenya and Tanzania, these were the only ones that got out of the water.
