What fun we had with elephants this afternoon! We saw a large family at the river. They decided to go in and cool off! They laid on their side. They put their head under water. There was a tiny 5-month old. She lost her footing in the deep water. Her mother reached out with her trunk and helped her up!
A few minutes later we found another elephant family. One came so close we could have reached out and touched her. We then watched two elephants greet each other –they reach out with their trunks and touch one another.
Then a bull elephant came right up to the car.
The evening ended with a leopard just chilling on a tree branch.
We have had a great start. We like Jelly our guide. Tomorrow we leave at 6:15am for a game drive. Back for breakfast. Then we will spend the rest of the day with our friends at Ewaso Lions at their camp where we are told a project awaits us.
