Tarangire National Park. How’s this for a view from your accommodation?
Next morning was Wednesday 17th February. Actually, I think I’ll just let these pictures, taken during our morning outing, speak for themselves. Suffice to say that if I had been sad not to have seen many elephants before this, these two days in Tarangire National Park more than made up for it – though you can never have too many elephants.
These are baobab trees. They store enormous amounts of water in their ‘trunks’, and can be centuries old.
