Animals of the Masai Mara

At the end of our trip we were taken to the Masai Mara for some time of reflection. It was so amazing to see these awesome animals out in creation. There were a few points where adrenaline was pumping from a triggered fight or flight response - it was awesome.

giraffe

heyna
This was one of those slightly freaked out moments. He was pacing right outside the jeep, and when he looked right at me I could have sworn he was considering making a jump for it.

elephant ready to charge
Another of those moments. This guy was really agitated. He stood in the middle of the road for a bit, threw some dirt at us, and then really did make a charge for it just as we hit the gas to go past him. = Awesome!
