We had coffee, tea (Mia) and hot chocolate (Ellie, but Ken took some too!!) this morning and headed out for a short safari. Beautiful sunrise, but not a lot of animal action. The water buffalo picture is from yesterday. He was the old man of the herd.
We returned, had a huge breakfast and went to the Maasai village. Our guide was a neat young man. He is the son of the chief who has 7 wives, 18 sons and 16 daughters. The guide is 17 and his dad is 82! He is a senior in high school (the only one of the 34 who has attended high school) and pays for his school by selling cows, doing carvings and doing the tours between sessions. I am glad we went, but it did overwhelm all of us due to the villagers circling Shelley and the girls and dancing and singing. For those of you who know Mia, situations like that stress her and she almost squeezed Shelley in half!
